Musique Concrete
Musique Concrete is
an interactive performance piece which explores sound and
the urban landscape through the movements on a skateboard.
The
result is a musical composition which transforms the skateboarder into a composer.
It aims to
provide an audience of all ages with a stimulating experience of new media,skateboarding,
the city and
sound.
Fire Dance
A fireplance is transformed into a music-making device. With a photoresistor,
(light sensor) various tones are generated according to the intensity of the
light.
Long flames render short and fast tones while weaker, less intense flames produce
slow, resonating sounds. As the fire gradually dies, sounds shift from short,
interrupted pulsations to slow and extended droning textures.
Rocking Chair
Oscillating back and forth on a rocking chair generates various notes on a scale.
An accelerometer mounted inside the user's pocket helps detect the user's horizontal
and vertical position.
At the maximum vertical position, the scale shifts
up a third allowing the “rocker” to
alternate between two scales.
Bike Wheel:
A bicycle wheel transformed into a musical
instrument.
