Mobile Device Percussion Parade
In this paper, we present the “Mobile Device Marching Band” (MDMB) as a new mode of musical performance with mobile computing devices. We define an MDMB to be, at its most general, any ensemble utilizing mobile computation that can travel as it performs, with the performance being independent of its location. We will discuss the affordances and limitations of mobile-based instrument design and ...

The mathematical framework that we introduce describes this phenomenon, by taking into account “natural parameters”, such as the sight o...
