SpeedDial : Rapid and On-The-Fly Mapping of Mobile Phone Instruments

Georg Essl

Proceedings of the International Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression

Abstract:

When creating new musical instruments on a mobile phone platform one has to map sensory input to synthesis algorithms. We propose that the very task of this mapping belongs in the creative process and to this end we develop a way to rapidly and on-the-fly edit the mapping of mobile phone instruments. The result is that the meaning of the instruments can continuously be changed during a live performance.
