PebbleBox and CrumbleBag: Tactile Interfaces for Granular Synthesis
نویسندگان
چکیده
The PebbleBox and the CrumbleBag are examples of a granular interaction paradigm, in which the manipulation of physical grains of arbitrary material becomes the basis for interacting with granular sound synthesis models. The sounds made by the grains as they are manipulated are analysed, and parameters such as grain rate, grain amplitude and grain density are extracted. These parameters are then used to control the granulation of arbitrary sound samples in real time. In this way, a direct link is made between the haptic sensation of interacting with grains and the control of granular sounds.

Borderlands -An Audiovisual Interface for Granular Synthesis
Borderlands is a new interface for composing and performing with granular synthesis. The software enables flexible, realtime improvisation and is designed to allow users to engage with sonic material on a fundamental level, breaking free of traditional paradigms for interaction with this technique. The user is envisioned as an organizer of sound, simultaneously assuming the roles of curator, pe...

We present a new embedded instrument, with discussion on the challenges of developing embedded instruments, and the practice and theory of NIME evaluation and design. The Shake Stick is a Raspberry Pi-based embedded instrument using SuperCollider for granular synthesis. In our analysis and design, we explore the MINUET design framework, dimension space analysis for inter-instrument comparison, ...
متن کاملOntological representation of tactile information for software development
The last years a growing body of research has been developed on tactile displays and interfaces, which can give physical form to digital information. In spite of the numerous tactile devices that have been constructed, the development of formal definition for tactile information still remains an open issue. In order for the software to better enhance the tactile information sensation, flow and ...
متن کاملGranular Synthesis for Display of Time-Varying Probability Densities
We present a method for displaying time-varying probabilistic information to users using an asynchronous granular synthesis technique. We extend the basic synthesis technique to include distribution over waveform source, spatial position, pitch and time inside waveforms. To enhance the synthesis in interactive contexts, we “quicken” the display by integrating predictions of user behaviour into ...
متن کاملMultimodal Haptic Perception within Granular Media via Recurrent Neural Networks
The sense of touch is essential for locating, identifying, and grasping buried objects when vision-based approaches are limited. In this work, we introduce an approach for haptic perception within granular media that leverages three different tactile sensor modalities (vibration, internal fluid pressure, fingerpad deformation). Online dictionary learning was used to pretrain inputs to recurrent...
