Contact - Augmented Acoustics
Felix Faire (UK), a Parametric System Designer had designed some very interesting interactive installations. One of these, Contact is an interface with which to manipulate and visualize sounds. Beautiful results. View Contact: Augmented Acoustics CONTACT: Augmented Acoustics from Felix Faire on Vimeo . "CONTACT is a tangible audio interface to manipulate and visualize sounds generated from interaction with a simple wooden surface. Any physical contact with the table generates acoustic vibrations which are manipulated and visualized LIVE as they occur using several communicating pieces of software. All code will be opensource and available on github. Bartlett School of Architecture Msc AAC Tutor: Ruairi Glynn" More information: http://www.c…

Force.Line.Border by Casey Farina
Force.Line.Border by Casey Farina is a beautiful audiovisual work that consists of an animated score where the movie serves as the score for three musicians who interpret a section of the screen. The design of the visual composition and the simplicity of the idea to work with three ideas/parameters of force, line and border is combined with the percussive sounds and motions so elegantly.

The data used to draw the shapes is transformed into audible frequencies. Laser patterns and sonic treatments are performed as an improvised dialog between the artist and the audiovisual machine. Lumière is an exploration of synchronicity and divergence, of light and darkness, movement and sound at the limits of perception."

These signals are technically the same type of signals used for audio, but …
