I was eager to familiarize myself with the state-of-the-art equipment of the Performance Platform in order to experiment on interactions between a performer and a video and especially its potential regarding sound. | I was eager to familiarize myself with the state-of-the-art equipment of the Performance Platform in order to experiment on interactions between a performer and a video and especially its potential regarding sound. | ||

I thus established that the Root position (x coordinate) in the space will control the carrier frequency of a ring modulation, and that the Head position (x coordinate) in the space will control the center frequency of a notch filter. In that way, when the listener moves on the platform, frequency modulation and a sweep effect will result. | I thus established that the Root position (x coordinate) in the space will control the carrier frequency of a ring modulation, and that the Head position (x coordinate) in the space will control the center frequency of a notch filter.

Besides, | Besides, the elevation of the left arm (y coordinate) controls the speed of a metronome that generates a fixed frequency subjected to an envelope generator. The elevation of the right arm (y coordinate) controls the feedback of a delay applied to the same source. When the arm is down, there is no delay (feedback=0) when the arm is raised to the maximum the feedback goes up to 0.7. The association of interactions with both arms was supposed to have a really playful effect on the listener who literally controls the "instrument" like a conductor. | ||

I must admit that I was frankly disappointed with the final result but I still want to go further in this direction because the possibilities offered by Max are really impressive and have made me want to devote myself seriously into it. | I must admit that I was frankly disappointed with the final result but I still want to go further in this direction because the possibilities offered by Max are really impressive and have made me want to devote myself seriously into it. |
