Opening Musical Creativity to Non-Musicians
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper gives an overview of my PhD research that aims at contributing toward the definition of a class of interfaces for music creation that target non-musicians. In particular, I am focusing on the differences on design and evaluation procedures with respect to traditional interfaces for music creation that are usually intended to be used by musicians. Supported by a number of preliminary findings we developed the first interactive system: The Music Room is an interactive installation which enables people to compose tonal music in pairs by communicating emotion expressed by moving throughout a room.
