The Manipuller : Strings Manipulation and Multi-Dimensional Force Sensing

Adrián Barenca, and Giuseppe Torre

Proceedings of the International Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression

Abstract

The Manipuller is a novel Gestural Controller based on strings manipulation and multi-dimensional force sensing technology. This paper describes its motivation, design and operational principles along with some of its musical applications. Finally the results of a preliminary usability test are presented and discussed.
