Ensemble Metatone: Research Concert 2013-08-03
Charles Patrick Martin, Christina Hopgood, Jonathan Griffiths, Yvonne Lam · ANU Open Research (Australian National University) · 2016
This free-improvised set of musical works was performed at a research concert by Ensemble Metatone in August 2013 at the Australian National University. It formed the end of a series of rehearsals-as-research arranged to investigate percussive interactions with touch-screen computer music instruments developed by Charles Martin. Two works were included in the concert: MetaLonsdale, using just iPads, and MetaTravels, using iPads as well as percussion instruments. The performances were recorded with multiple channels of audio and video. Touch-screen data from the computer music instruments was also recorded and animated to help understand the performers’ touch gestures throughout the performance. The video of this performance and interaction log data are included in this record.
