The Gestural Sound Toolkit is a collection of Max/MSP patches and objects for easy and fast gesture-to-sound scenario prototyping. It includes receivers from motion capture systems, signal processing modules, machine learning modules, and sound synthesis modules. The function of the toolkit is to give participants a sketching tool to develop prototypes using interactive gestural-sound mappings. […]
Thanks to the support of ERC, the Department of Computing and the Graduate School at Goldsmiths, I joined the rest of the EAVI team in Seoul, South Korea, to attend ACM SIG CHI 2015. Seven of us went to CHI this year to present two papers one note, which disclosed EAVI’s research methods, approaches and outcomes in sonic interaction design, […]
Form Follows Sound: Workshops on Sonic Interaction Design In the context of Human Computer Interactions, Sonic Interaction Design is commonly considered as a design practice that exploits the use of sound to facilitate users’ interactions with products and services, mediated by computational technologies. As interaction with sound may be task oriented or experience-based, an understanding […]
I am very excited to announce that the paper we wrote on Form Follows Sound, the series of research workshops on Embodied Sonic Interactions we delivered last year, has been accepted for a full paper presentation at the ACM SIG CHI 2015 in Seoul, South Korea. Thanks to ERC, EAVI and the Department of Computing, who […]
Last January I have been invited by Daniel Hug and Moritz Kemper to give a one day workshop on Embodied Sonic Interactions to BA students of the Interaction Design course at ZHdK, University of Arts, Zurich . The workshop was part of a 2 weeks teaching activities organised by ZHdK for their module on Sonic Interaction Design, taught to students at […]
We gave the last series of workshop on Embodied Sonic Interactions workshop at IRCAM, Centre Pompidou, Paris between July 17th-19th 2013, and delivered by myself, Baptiste Caramiaux and Atau Tanaka. This was a commission for the HCC2 (Human Computer Confluence) Summer School 2013 organised by Isabelle Viaud-Delmon, Hugues Vinet, Marine Taffou, Sylvie Benoit and Fivos Maniatakos (IRCAM) In this workshop […]
I presented a poster at the Music, Digitisation, Mediation conference in Oxford, on an initial investigation of sound-related affordances and their contribution to sound-movement relationships. This is the accepted abstract. Affordance is a concept originated in the field of ecological psychology, described by Gibson as the potential for actions between an animal and its environment. […]
On May 2013, part of EAVI research group (including myself) went to NIME 2013 in Daejeon/Seoul to present our last research and performances. This year, i presented in the poster session a research paper written with Atau Tanaka and Baptiste Caramiaux, on current investigation on sonic affordances. Following up the current research on sound-related affordances […]
On June 12th-14th 2013 we gave our second workshop on Embodied Sonic Interactions at Parsons, New School of Design, New York. Myself , Baptiste Caramiaux and Atau Tanaka were invited to work with Scott Pobiner (Parsons Assistant Professor, Designing Strategies) to deliver a 2 days workshop to a group of students coming from different areas […]
I am super excited to announce I will give the second workshop of our Embodied Sonic Interactions series at, New School of Design, NYC. More info here: Workshop website Announcement on EAVI website. Looking forward to it!
