Abstract

This paper describes an online Wiki, a collaborative Web site designed to allow users to edit and add content. It was created at the Input Devices and Music Interaction Laboratory with the aim of promoting and supporting the construction of new musical interfaces. Although many individual universities and research centres offer sources of relevant information online, this project allows for easy sharing and dissemination of information across institutional and international boundaries. In this paper, the internal framework and categorization scheme for the Wiki is profiled, and each section is introduced. The benefits of joining this effort are clearly demonstrated, and the possible future directions of the project are detailed.
