Loop-R : Real-Time Video Interface

Rui Pereira

Proceedings of the International Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression

Abstract

Loop-R is a real-time video performance tool, based in the exploration of low-tech, used technology and human engineering research. With this tool its author is giving a shout to industry, using existing and mistreated technology in innovative ways, combining concepts and interfaces: blending segregated interfaces (GUI and Physical) into one. After graspable interfaces and the “end” of WIMP interfaces, hardware and software blend themselves in a new genre providing free control of video-loops in an expressive hybrid tool.
