MobileMuse: Integral Music Control Goes Mobile

Raymond Knapp, Brennon Bortz · New Interfaces for Musical Expression · 2011

This paper describes a new interface for mobile music creation, the MobileMuse, that introduces the capability of using physiological indicators of emotion as a new mode of interaction. Combining both kinematic and physiological measurement in a mobile environment creates the possibility of integral music control|the use of both gesture and emotion to control sound creation|where it has never been possible before. This paper will review the concept of integral music control and describe the motivation for creating the MobileMuse, its design and future possibilities.
