Hehe -- iOS musicians might recognize the actual app they are using in the clip. It's called TouchOSC (http://hexler.net/software/touchosc)

Interface.js uses the same vector-art style, though it could use a bit of color: http://www.charlie-roberts.com/interface/

Even non musicians- the OSC protocol is used a lot in HCI research for prototyping (TUIO is built on top of OSC). For my master's thesis, I implemented a system that allowed a user to seamlessly transfer content (an open picture, playing video, etc.) from device to device in a room (phone, pads, tabletop computers, etc.), and the protocol gluing everything together was built upon OSC.
Thanks both for taking the time to check this out and offer these insights and links - I was so blown away by the UI on the Star Wars demo I was sure they'd probably developed it themselves. Looks like I didn't need to build these at all! (Although I will be rebuilding these using SVG and doing tutorials on them as I go along).
