Digital Musical Interactions - Instruments - Performances

The main objective of the project, Digital Musical Interactions - Instruments - Performances, is to articulate a framework to better understand the principles of emerging technologies and cultural constraints behind digital musical interactions, specifically how they appropriate and give meaning to the evolving nature of the relations between performer, musician, instrument, audience, instrument designer and environment in digital music practices. In this macro-view understanding of digital musical interaction, digital music performance's disparate elements will be connected and interdisciplinary design factors of new musical instruments, technological and cultural constraints will be structured. The project's framework will help us to better understand the interaction principles from a cultural and the technology-interaction perspective, which can open up new set of values for us to explore and imagine that do not yet exist in our interaction with digital musical instruments.
