In New Digital Musical Instruments Eduardo Miranda and Marcelo Wanderley focus on
musical instruments that use the computer as the main sound-generating device. Such …

This paper presents a review of a series of experiments which have contributed towards the
understanding of the mapping layer in electronic instruments. It challenges the assumption …

This paper provides a review of gestural control of sound synthesis in the context of the
design and evaluation of digital musical instruments. It discusses research in various areas …

In this report, we describe our development on the Max/MSP toolbox MnM dedicated to
mapping between gesture and sound, and more generally to statistical and machine …

Technologies for sensing movement are expanding toward everyday use in virtual reality,
gaming, and artistic practices. In this context, there is a need for methodologies to help …

ABSTRACT This report describes The Metasurface–a mapping interface supporting
interactive design of two-to-many mappings through the placement and interpolation of …

This article contributes a holistic conceptual framework for the notion of “mapping” that
extends the classical view of mapping as parameter association. In presenting this holistic …

This paper discusses explicit mapping strategies for gestural and adaptive control of digital
audio effects. We address the problem of defining what is the control and what is the effect …

Designing the relationship between motion and sound is essential to the creation of
interactive systems. This thesis proposes an approach to the design of the mapping between …

The choice of mapping strategies to effectively map controller variables to sound synthesis
algorithms is examined. Specifically, we look at continuous mappings that have a geometric …
