Primary and secondary aspects of musical gestures in live coding performance
Georgios Diapoulis · Chalmers Research (Chalmers University of Technology) · 2021
Embodied interaction in live coding performance has been reported and is particularly present in dance performance. Here, we review studies from music phychology and perception along with studies from live coding and human-computer interaction. We examined how the live coder may experience primary aspects of musical gestures and we discuss how music listening and musical imagery may trigger mental models of gestural unfoldings. Disciplinary gaps between music psychology and the live coding community are discussed.
