[Marco Donnarumma]

(sorry for x-post)

Thursday 31st March
16.30-18.00
Foyle Arts Building
Derry, Ireland.

/// Xth Sense.

The Xth Sense is a low cost, Open Source-based framework for the application
of muscle sounds to the biophysical generation and control of music (or more
generally for responsive milieux).
The framework includes a low cost biosensing wearable device, and a modular
DSP software (Pure Data-based) for real time capture, analysis and design
with muscle sounds.
Marco Donnarumma will be reporting on the methods used during the research,
present findings and issues, perspective outcomes of future research, while
discussing the aesthetic criteria underpinning the research.
