As a composer Richard Hoadley (UK) has recently focussed on the effect of the physical interface on music, writing a number of automatic compositions including '127 Haikus'. He is currently developing a suite of interfaces including 'Gaggle', 'Wired' and 'Melodia' - hardware/software systems designed for physical interactions with algorithms. He has been awarded the RVW Trust Composer-in-Residency and his instrumental compositions include 'Only Connect', recorded by the BBC Symphony Orchestra. He is affiliated with the Digital Performance Laboratory at Anglia Ruskin University.
Implementation and Development of Interfaces for Music Generation and Performance through Analysis of Improvised Movement and Dance
This presentation describes the conception, design and implementation of a
number of hardware/software musical interfaces and their use in rehearsal
and performance settings with a group of dancers and a choreographer, as
well as their use by members of the public. It analyses these occasions and
investigates the continuing design and development of such interfaces. It
also examines the nature of electronic and digital interfaces for musical
expression through the specific use of multiple sensors, the data from which
is used to control many changing musical parameters.
