ABSTRACT

We describe some interaction design principles and two interactive algorithms for the transformation of user-input from simple low degree of freedom (DOF) devices to support the synthesis of sound in music improvisation. We offer 'algorithmically mediated interaction' as an alternative to direct manipulation (DM) to describe auditory interfaces of this sort. A short performance complements this paper.
