This open access book offers an original interdisciplinary overview of the role of haptic feedback in musical interaction. Divided into two parts, part I examines the tactile aspects of music performance and perception, discussing how they affect user experience and performance in terms of usability, functionality and perceived quality of musical instruments. Part II presents engineering, computational, and design approaches and guidelines that have been applied to render and exploit haptic feedback in digital musical interfaces.

The Performance Practice of Electroacoustic Music | Germán Toro-Pérez, Lucas Bennett (eds.)
CHF 68.00
The Studio di Fonologia years
This book is dedicated to the topic of performance practice of electroacoustic music, focusing mainly on the production of RAI’s Studio di Fonologia in Milan between the 1950s and 1970s. It is the result of an in-depth dialogue between musicology and musical practice, presenting musicological and practice-based contributions, some dealing with specific problems of performance practice, in particular the analysis and interpretation of the aesthetic prerequisites and production conditions of the repertoire from a musicological perspective, others focusing on specific works and on their realisation from a performer’s perspective. Overall, this publication is intended as a contribution to the performance culture of the repertoire.
Signals, Systems and Sound Synthesis | Martin Neukom
The subject of this book is the synthesis and treatment of sound by computer. Using illustrations, animations, sound examples and sample programs, it introduces the most important techniques of sound and score synthesis and explains the technical and mathematical principles necessary for understanding them. After reviewing fundamentals of acoustics, the author describes system and signal theory and introduces the programs and programming languages used in the book. The traditionally important synthesis techniques are described in detail, as are various nonlinear synthesis techniques and synthesis by physical modeling. The concluding chapters of the book deal with the projection of sound in space and with the use of algorithmic and stochastic procedures in computer music. The appendix contains a survey of basic mathematical principles, various tables for reference and a detailed index. The included CD contains the entire text of the book, as well as additional chapters and explanations, sound examples, animations illustrating dynamic processes and many sample computer programs.

Disembodied voice (mit Blu-ray) | Anton Rey, Germán Toro-Pérez (Hg.)
Beiträge zur technischen Manipulation der Stimme und deren Nutzbarmachung für das Theater
Welche Auswirkung haben die sich rasant entwickelnden technischen Möglichkeiten, die menschliche Stimme elektroakustisch zu verstärken, auf den Schauspieler? «Disembodied Voice» beschäftigt sich mit Phänomenen der technischen Manipulation der Stimme und deren Nutzbarmachung für das Theater. Die Durchdringung von Theorie, Praxis und Ausbildung, die Kooperation zwischen Künstlern, Theoretikern, Bühnen- und Stimm-Ausbildnern hat unterschiedlich klingende Textsorten im vorliegenden Band versammelt.
