My research is focused on developing new methods of performer agency in live electronic music and utilising audio-visual symbiosis to enhance audience engagement. I do this through the design of new gestural software instruments and the development of new strategies of conveying musical expression in the performance of live electronics.
I will present my designs for two works, The Phonetics Project (a voice+electronics piece) and Hear to Listen (a flute+electronics) piece.
In order to achieve performer agency and for performers to have confidence in the system, robustness of the instrument is crucial. Given the changeable nature of technology this is a different challenge to address. This leads me to an unanswered question - do we sacrifice compatibility and portability for long-term reliability? If so, do we as computer music designers need to also become digital luthiers? Or should we be content with the ephemeral nature of the work?
