2017.18 Artistic Research Residency

Augmented physicality and emotionality
In collaboration with the CREAM team-project and the Analysis of Musical Practices team

The research project will investigate simple scientific interactions in order to create a solfeggio of physiological parameters, perception and emotional responses generated in a live music context for a performer and for an interpreter who plays the role of emotional resonance. The first phase of the project will be the construction and documentation of the device. Then, following scientific and artistic experiments (studies) we want to organize and work with specific physiological and emotional states of the interpreters alone, or in combinations. An important characteristic of the project will be the feedback that it is possible to create between physiological and emotional recognition, real-time music created with this data, and the listening of the interpreter who changes his emotional state. The chosen instrument is the saxophone, but other wind instruments could be studied; the nature of the performer must be specified. The final phase of the project is devoted to producing research documentation and writing the solfeggio. This device intends to be an IMC, an Integral Music Controller, according to the definition of Knapp and Cook (2005), that has the ambition to create a device of augmented physicality and emotionality.
