Expression and Spatial Motion : Playable Ambisonics

Joanne Cannon, and Stuart Favilla

Proceedings of the International Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression

Abstract

This paper presents research undertaken by the Bent Leather Band investigating the application of live Ambisonics to large digital-instrument ensemble improvisation. Their playable approach to live ambisonic projection is inspired by the work of Trevor Wishart and presents a systematic investigation of the potential for live spatial motion improvisation.
