As you might know, my main colleague and research collaborator who works with me in the design of 3D musical interfaces is Zack Settel. In summer of 2008, he produced Blairatta Policeme, a volumetric concert piece for jazz trio, mobile chamner quartet, and audio-enhanced performance space. See his documentation for more about what this means. On that site, you’ll find a live recording by the CBC, as well as an excellent video that explains the main concepts.

Also most recently, Zack appears in a video interview (seulement en français) on the on the Télé-Québec site. In fact, you can also see me in some of the shots, apparently doing “research”.

The call for NIME (New Interfaces for Musical Expression) has been posted for next year’s conference, which will be held at Carnegie Mellon in Pittsburgh. More details at www.nime2009.org. The submission deadline for most items is January 24th, 2009.
