Global String: A Musical Instrument for Hybrid Space
نویسندگان
چکیده
Creative and technical considerations in building a musical instrument to traverse acoustical space and network space. Conceiving a musical instrument for heterogeneous space and democratic use requires implementation of diverse modes and techniques satisfying needs of tactile local presence, and tangible telepresence. The result is an artistic project destined for multi-site gallery installation and performance. It is a musical instrument that exists in the mixed realities of acoustical space and network space.

Marie: monochord-aerophone robotic instrument ensemble
The Modular Electro-Acoustic Robotic Instrument System (MEARIS) represents a new type of hybrid electroacousticelectromechanical instrument model. Monochord-Aerophone Robotic Instrument Ensemble (MARIE), the first realization of a MEARIS, is a set of interconnected monochord and cylindrical aerophone robotic musical instruments created by Expressive Machines Musical Instruments (EMMI). MARIE co...
متن کاملModeling and Analysis of Acoustic Musical Strings Using Kelly-Lochbaum Lattice Networks
Musical strings play important roles in the timbre of a stringed instrument. An instrument installed with different strings can produce very different sounds. To model a plucked-string instrument physically, analyzing its strings may be a good starting point. In this paper, a novel strategy for the modeling and analysis of acoustic musical strings is proposed. In order to obtain the vibration o...
متن کاملThe Lattice Harp: A New Hybrid Instrument And Controller
This paper describes the Lattice Harp, a new musical instrument which functions simultaneously as an acoustic instrument and a hardware controller. The Lattice Harp consists of two overlaid, perpendicular planes of strings which are electrically connected to a microcontroller. The microcontroller detects when two strings are touching and treats this data as a button being pressed. Furthermore, ...
متن کاملFinger Position and Pressure Sensing Techniques for String and Keyboard Instruments
Several new technologies to capture motion, gesture and forces for musical instrument players’ analyses have been developed in the last years. In research and for augmented instruments one parameter is underrepresented so far. It is finger position and pressure measurement, applied by the musician while playing the musical instrument. In this paper we show a flexible linear-potentiometer and fo...
متن کاملThe Vbow: Two Versions of a Virtual Violin Bow Controller
The vBow is a haptic musical controller human-computer interface, which simulates the forcefeedback of a bow on a violin string, while driving a bowed-string physical model. It is both a musical instrument for expressing the musical gestures of a performer, and a tool for testing friction and vibration models, and the responsiveness of physical model sound synthesis.
