Database and Mapping Design for Audiovisual Prepared Radio Set Installation

Robin Price, and Pedro Rebelo

Proceedings of the International Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression

Abstract

This paper describes both the design strategies behind a database of radio gathered percussive sounds, and also the interaction scheme used to embed this database in an audio-visual installation. In particular we describe the implementation of a complex mapping system that uses a model of heat energy and 'one to many' mappings to encourage a holistic cognitive mode in the user.
