description | This paper presents some directions on the design, development and creative use of haptic systems for musical composition, performance and digital art creation. This research has been conducted both from an artistic and a technical point of view and its ambition, over the last decade, apart from the artistic outcome, was to introduce the field of haptics to artistic communities based on an open, do it yourself—DIY ethos. The five directions presented here are not in any sense exhaustive and are based principally on a series of collaborative works and more personal open-ended explorations with the medium of haptics and, more specifically, force-feedback interaction. They will be highlighted along with information about the interaction models and their application to artistic works created by the author and other colleagues. Those directions are (i) Haptic Algorithms and Systems; (ii) Performers Intercoupling; (iii) Haptic Interfaces as Part of the Artistic Practice; (iv) Electromechanical Sound Generation; and (v) Media Art and Art Installations. The interdisciplinary field of musical haptics still has a relatively minor position in the sound and music computing research agendas and, more importantly, its artistic dimension is very rarely discussed. The findings of this research aim to indicate and clarify potential research pathways and offer some results on the use of haptics and force-feedback systems in an artistic context. |
