at the moment its in the beginning of make it and in the disclaimer.

The presented SE revision of PushPull is the third iteration of the instrument and was developed within the 3DMIN Project. By publicly documenting the development and building process, we preserve our knowledge and emphasize a central directive of publicly funded research: to expand knowledge and make it publicly available. This page may serve as an inspiration for you. What will you build? What will you do different? What kind of instrument designs does it inspire? We are more than happy to learn about your variation and add it to the page! Just write an issue to the github page and we will get in contact with you. If you want to get a face-to-face introduction on building this extraordinary instrument as well as to be introduced to new sound patches and mappings, please contact one of us via our web pages or via twitter. Since we facilitated PushPull-building workshops in the past, we are happy to repeat it in one way or the other.

or we leave it in make it, delete it in th disclaimer and have our standard pushups text below the video in th e what's it section:

PushPull is the first instrument prototype created as part of the 3DMIN project. Central control element is a bellow combining inertial sensor data with mechano-analog sound input and digital synthesis. Referring in it’s exterior appearance to traditional instruments like the accordion as well as to a blacksmith’s bellow we aimed to establish an interface triggering imagination and engagement of both, the musician and the audience, a tangible object enabling a physical relation to the created sound. We think that in the characteristic air movement, the affordances offered by the object itself, the combination of complex algorithmic structures and physical constraints lays a compelling quality of expression. Within a performance with PushPull, it is possible to combine chaotic elements as well as rhythmical patterns, while shifting between audio feedback and harmonic structures.
