Abstract
Abstract The Acoustic Localization Positioning System is the outcome of several years of participatory development with musicians and artists having a stake in sonic arts, collaboratively aiming for nonobtrusive tracking and indoors positioning technology that facilitates spatial interaction and immersion. Based on previous work on application scenarios for spatial reproduction of moving sound sources and the conception of the kinaesthetic interface, a tracking system for spatially interactive sonic arts is presented here. It is an open-source implementation in the form of a stand-alone application and associated Max patches. The implementation uses off-the-shelf, ubiquitous technology. Based on the findings of tests and experiments conducted in extensive creative workshops, we show how the approach addresses several technical problems and overcomes some typical obstacles to immersion in spatially interactive applications in sonic arts.
期刊介绍:
Computer Music Journal is published quarterly with an annual sound and video anthology containing curated music¹. For four decades, it has been the leading publication about computer music, concentrating fully on digital sound technology and all musical applications of computers. This makes it an essential resource for musicians, composers, scientists, engineers, computer enthusiasts, and anyone exploring the wonders of computer-generated sound.
Edited by experts in the field and featuring an international advisory board of eminent computer musicians, issues typically include:
In-depth articles on cutting-edge research and developments in technology, methods, and aesthetics of computer music
Reports on products of interest, such as new audio and MIDI software and hardware
Interviews with leading composers of computer music
Announcements of and reports on conferences and courses in the United States and abroad
Publication, event, and recording reviews
Tutorials, letters, and editorials
Numerous graphics, photographs, scores, algorithms, and other illustrations.
