项目摘要

This research is about the impact on musical gestural interaction of over-sized Digital Musical Instrument (DMI) design, that is instruments with physical dimensions that are larger than the human body performing them but smaller than the size of the room they are in. When interacting with an interface not only does the performer move their body to control the interface, the interface design and affordances control the way the performer moves their body. In the context of DMIs, two instruments with the same sonic capabilities will elicit different patterns of gestural interaction depending on their physical layout. Using the methodology of designing instruments for the purpose of exploring research questions, this research examines the gestural interaction made by performers on large DMIs to investigate how changes in size ultimately shape the gestural language of the performer, and through that the compositional choices they make.This research investigates gestural interaction and how it shapes compositional choices through three studies. Each study examines the relative effects on performance and composition of various factors of affordances and idiomatic gestural language performed on large DMIs. Studying performer interactions on large instruments with novel layouts that participants have not yet developed idiomatic gestural languages will result in new discoveries that are relevant to the design of large instruments as well as instruments of all sizes. This research will be relevant for digital musical instrument designers and Human Computer Interaction researchers as it will elucidate the influence that a DMI's physical size and layout has on the performances and compositions created using digital musical instruments, so that designers can make informed decisions to either support or suppress specific influences in future DMI design. Further, through this research, I will contribute the design of a new family of digital musical instruments that can be used by digital musical instrument performers and researchers in the future.

这项研究是关于超大尺寸数字乐器（oversize Digital musical Instrument， DMI）设计对音乐手势交互的影响，即乐器的物理尺寸大于演奏它们的人体，但小于它们所在房间的大小。在与界面交互时，不仅表演者移动身体来控制界面，界面设计和功能还控制表演者移动身体的方式。在dmi的背景下，两个具有相同声音能力的乐器将根据其物理布局引发不同的手势交互模式。为了探索研究问题，本研究采用了设计乐器的方法，研究了表演者在大型dmi上的手势互动，以研究大小的变化如何最终塑造表演者的手势语言，并通过这种方式做出作曲选择。本研究通过三项研究探讨手势互动及其如何影响构图选择。每项研究都考察了在大型dmi上进行的辅助功能和习惯手势语言的各种因素对表现和组成的相对影响。研究表演者在具有新颖布局的大型乐器上的互动，参与者尚未形成习惯的手势语言，将导致与大型乐器以及所有尺寸乐器设计相关的新发现。这项研究将与数字乐器设计师和人机交互研究人员相关，因为它将阐明DMI的物理尺寸和布局对使用数字乐器创作的表演和作品的影响，因此设计师可以做出明智的决定，以支持或抑制未来DMI设计中的特定影响。此外，通过这项研究，我将有助于设计一个新的数字乐器家族，可以在未来被数字乐器表演者和研究人员使用。
