We present a set of probabilistic models that support the design of movement and sound
relationships in interactive sonic systems. We focus on a mapping-by-demonstration …

This paper documents the development of ml. lib: a set of opensource tools designed for
employing a wide range of machine learning techniques within two popular real-time …

Machine learning systems became pervasive in modern interactive technology but provide
users with little, if any, agency with respect to how their models are trained from data. In this …

miMic, a sonic analogue of paper and pencil is proposed: An augmented microphone for
vocal and gestural sonic sketching. Vocalizations are classified and interpreted as instances …

ABSTRACT In a New Interface for Musical Expression (NIME), the design of the relationship
between a musician's actions and the instrument's sound response is critical in creating …

This thesis investigates the notion of shape in music from a psychological perspective.
Rooted in the embodied cognition research programme, it seeks to understand what kinds of …

This article presents a custom system combining hardware and software that senses
physiological signals of the performer's body resulting from muscle contraction and …

We propose and evaluate an approach to incorporating multiple user-provided inputs, each
demonstrating a complementary set of musical characteristics, to guide the output of a …

Modern gestural interaction and motion capture technology is frequently incorporated into
Digital Musical Instruments (DMIs) to enable new methods of musical expression. A major …

In this paper we address the design and implementation of custom controller interfaces,
bridging the issue of user mapping between action and sound in interactive music systems …
