Let's use accelerometer to control sounds in Pure Data or Max/MSP!!

To Buy

-Arduino Nano

I think this one should be fine? If I remember correctly, you have to install a CH430 firmware in order to get it working with Pure Data/Max. And Windows user had issue with this thing. But maybe it all got fixed in the past 3 years?? Just a heads up before you click "buy"!!
For much less headache, it might be a better idea to buy the official Nano. It may possibly save you time in the long run. There's a reason why I avoided Nano on this channel!! Or I could be overthinking, but I do care about your time.

-USB Cable (Arduino Nano uses Mini USB cable. Please double check when you select your Nano)

This one should be fine

-Breadboard (82 mm long so that it can be mounted nicely onto the sphere!)

-Wires

-Accelerometer

If you would like to use accelerometer for MIDI, I recommend purchasing ones that are not using SCL and SDA.

Something like this should work with my Arduino MIDI tutorial.

Adafruit has one too but it's expensive... I may need to do a pt.2 of the Arduino MIDI tutorial where where we can use sensors that use digital pins or SCL + SDA...

-Half Foam Ball
