MICON A Music Stand for Interactive Conducting

Jan Borchers, Aristotelis Hadjakos, and Max Mühlhäuser

Proceedings of the International Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression

Abstract:

The MICON is an electronic music stand extending Maestro!, the latest in a series of interactive conducting exhibits that use real orchestral audio and video recordings. The MICON uses OpenGL-based rendering to display and animate score pages with a high degree of realism. It offers three different score display formats to match the user's level of expertise. A realtime animated visual cueing system helps users with their conducting. The MICON has been evaluated with music students.
