Virtual Intimacy : Phya as an Instrument

Dylan Menzies

Proceedings of the International Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression

Abstract:

Phya is an open source C++ library originally designed foradding physically modeled contact sounds into computergame environments equipped with physics engines. We review some aspects of this system, and also consider it fromthe purely aesthetic perspective of musical expression.
