本文探讨了数码乐器演奏中的挪用过程，考察了乐器复杂性对个人演奏风格产生的影响。10名不同背景的音乐家被赋予一种故意限制的乐器，一个包含触摸/力传感器，扬声器和嵌入式计算机的木制立方体。每个立方体的结构都是相同的，但一半的仪器配置为两个自由度，而另一半只允许一个自由度。每个音乐家都在家里练习，并进行了两次表演，他们的技术和反应通过视频，传感器数据日志，问卷调查和访谈进行评估。结果表明，第二个自由度的增加有违反直觉的效果，减少了仪器的自主性的探索，这表明存在一个占主导地位的约束，在两个配置强烈区分的过程中的拨款在两组参与者。
This paper investigates the process of appropriation in digital musical instrument performance, examining the e↵ect of instrument complexity on the emergence of personal playing styles. Ten musicians of varying background were given a deliberately constrained musical instrument, a wooden cube containing a touch/force sensor, speaker and embedded computer. Each cube was identical in construction, but half the instruments were configured for two degrees of freedom while the other half allowed only a single degree. Each musician practiced at home and presented two performances, in which their techniques and reactions were assessed through video, sensor data logs, questionnaires and interviews. Results show that the addition of a second degree of freedom had the counterintuitive e↵ect of reducing the exploration of the instrument’s a↵ordances; this suggested the presence of a dominant constraint in one of the two configurations which strongly di↵erentiated the process of appropriation across the two groups of participants.
