Installation

rect_0011:

This interactive installation picks up the main idea of Enrique Tomás ́ Tangible Scores. In that piece performers gesturally interact with a musical score that also represents the instrument. Based on this thought an intuitive interface framework was developed. In this framework notation and instruments merge to audiovisual score objects, such as geometrical shapes or fractals appearing on a multi-touch screen that performers can interact with. Thus, the participatory aspect of the concept of interactive graphical scores is investigated by combining the art forms installation and performed piece.
