Interactive Swarm Orchestra
نویسنده
چکیده
The project Interactive Swarm Orchestra (ISO) employs flocking algorithms to control computer sound synthesis and 3D sound positioning. Synthesis, positioning and movement of several simultaneous sound events are modeled according to swarm behavior. Camera-based tracking allows visitors to interact with this acoustic flock and thereby change its spatial distribution and synthesis properties. This paper focuses on the description of the software components that have been developed specifically for this project. These components encompass of a sound synthesis framework, functionality for 3D sound projection based on Ambisonics, a generic multiagent simulation environment, and video tracking software for conventional video cameras and for SwissRanger 3D cameras. All software source code is publicly available.

متن کاملPersonal Orchestra: Conducting Audio/Video Music Recordings
Personal Orchestra lets anybody conduct an electronic orchestra at a new level of realism: users interact not with a synthetic, but an original audio and video recording of a real orchestra—the Vienna Philharmonic. Nevertheless, they can interactively control not only volume and instrumentation, but also tempo of the orchestra, using natural conducting gestures. A gesture-tracking and -predicti...
متن کاملA real-time audio/video system for interactive conducting
We present the first multimedia system to conduct a realistic electronic orchestra. Users can control tempo, dynamics, and instrument emphasis of the orchestra through natural conducting gestures with an infrared baton. Using gesture recognition and tempo adjustment algorithms, the system plays back an audio and video recording of an actual orchestra that follows the user’s conducting in real t...
