Tangible tabletop musical interfaces allowing for a collaborative real-time interaction in live music performances are one of the promising fields in NIMEs. At present, this kind of interfaces present at least some of the following characteristics that limit their musical use: latency in the interaction, and partial or complete lack of responsiveness to gestures such as tapping, scrubbing or pr...

Predictive influences of auditory information on resolution of visual competition were investigated using music, whose visual symbolic notation is familiar only to those with musical training. Results from two experiments using different experimental paradigms revealed that melodic congruence between what is seen and what is heard impacts perceptual dynamics during binocular rivalry. This bisen...

ABSTRACT A method is developed with the aims of: 1) providing an assessment of selfand inter-listener consistency of key presses, represented along a timeline, in response to the musical listening task of identifying the beginning of phrases in a piece, 2) identifying an ‘interpretation’ for each listener, and 3) using these to identify groups of responses. This method leads to the quantitative...

Evaluation has been suggested to be one of the main trends in current NIME research. However, the meaning of the term for the community may not be as clear as it seems. In order to explore this issue, we have analyzed all papers and posters published in the proceedings of the NIME conference from 2012 to 2014. For each publication that explicitly mentioned the term “evaluation”, we looked for: ...
