本文提出了一种交互式装置，它采用聚集算法来产生音乐和视觉效果。用户的动作被摄像机捕捉并影响羊群的行为。每个在虚拟 3D 空间中移动的代理都控制一个 MIDI 乐器，其演奏风格取决于代理的状态。在这个系统中，用户充当影响羊群音乐活动的指挥。除了手势交互之外，还可以使用直观的 GUI 即时修改系统的声学属性。系统的听觉和视觉输出是鸡群和用户行为相结合的结果。因此，它在行为层面上创造了自然和人工现实的混合。该系统设计用于运行各种不同的计算配置，从小型笔记本电脑到展览规模的安装。
This paper presents an interactive installation that employs flocking algorithms to produce music and visuals. The user's motions are captured by a video camera and influence the flocks behaviour. Each agent moving in a virtual 3D space controls a MIDI instrument whose playing style depends on the agent's state. In this system, the user acts as a conductor influencing the flock's musical activity. In addition to gestural interaction, the acoustic properties of the system can be modified on the fly by using an intuitive GUI. The acoustical and visual output of the system results from the combination of the flock's and user's behaviour. It therefore creates on the behavioural level a mixing of natural and artificial reality. The system has been designed to run an a variety of different computational configuration ranging from small laptops to exhibition scale installations.
