Description

It would be nice to be able to use the demo in a touch environment (eg: phone or tablet). (Not required: sound could be continuous after a 'start/down' event until an 'end/up' event is received)

I agree that this would be nice.

For reference:

(side-note: the event listeners for triggering init should be removed in init, otherwise using the keyboard causes init to be triggered multi times, and DOMExceptions when trying to remove the startMessage that has already been removed).

Research direction

Start with the violent-theremin demo in the linked Demo repo and compare its current interaction handling with the live demo. Add touch support for start/down and end/up interactions, and verify the keyboard-triggered init path does not register listeners repeatedly or cause DOMExceptions.
