Abstract:

In the present study a musician and a dancer explore the co-play between them through sensory technology. The main questions concern the placement and processing of motion sensors, and the choice of sound parameters that a dancer can manipulate. Results indicate that sound parameters of delay and pitch altered dancers’ experience most positively and that placement of sensors on each wrist and ankle with a diagonal mapping of the sound parameters was the most suitable.
