soundSpace: Hear Motion
|
soundSpace was developed in partnership with Duke Engineering’s Visualization Technology Group and Duke’s Music Department
Scott Lindroth, Associate Professor of Music at Duke, and one of the developers of the exhibit says: I hope the music and sound design will encourage participants to 'play' the room as if it were a musical instrument...”

Enter our new interactive soundSpace: Hear Motion and your movement creates sounds based on images captured by a series of web cameras. The faster you move the more the sounds come to life!
The amount of motion in each area changes the intensity and volume of the experience. In some cases, spinning beneath a camera sends sound swirling around the room.
Create your own audio tracks at interactive computer kiosks in soundSpace! You can develop your own custom soundscapes at computer kiosks using a large library of sounds and applying simple image processing techniques that focus on basic mathematical operations (addition, subtraction, and multiplication).
“An interactive music installation is an exciting opportunity for composers to explore new models of live performance. Instead of preparing a fixed musical composition, one has to leave room for unpredictable decisions by the participants in the space.” —Scott Lindroth, Associate Professor of Music at Duke
“The physicality of the movement and the emotional impact of the music generated by the installation captures the imagination of visitors and encourages them to explore and develop an understanding of the technical aspects of the system...” —Steve Feller, Duke Engineer and one of the lead designers of Duke’s three-year project
