1. Push, gently
25115 Bodily Interaction – final project
2. idea
• Turn a tangible object into a musical
instrument
• Use the deformation of the material as the
principal interaction paradigm
3. realization
• Stretchy fabric to be mounted on poles
• Calibrate Kinect so that depth is zero when the
surface is flat
• Scan horizontally the surface depth
• Create a sound buffer whose samples are the
height map calculated above
5. Technical implementation
• Open Sound Control Max/Msp
• Transformation of
the height map into
a buffer
• Filtering and
waveform clean-up
6. features
• Multi - ”user”
• Continuous timbre manipulation simplified additive
synthesis
• It does not rely on arbitrary mapping
Open points
• Vertical scanning unused
• Which material?
