Music(re)ality: A Collaborative Improvisation between Virtual and Real World

Yichen Wang, and Charles Patrick Martin

Music Proceedings of the International Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression

Abstract

Music(re)ality is a collaborative musical performance between the virtual and real world. Two musicians will present a musical improvisation, with one performing with an iPad instrument and the others using a freehand augmented reality musical instrument. While musicians are physically located in the space, the music jamming will happen across a virtual and real environment. How will the collaboration happen and what is a mixed reality musical performance? Through sonic feedback or performers' musical gestures? It will all be demonstrated in this performance.
