Although the advancements in movement sensing technologies offer numerous possibilities for new interface design, the expressivity in physical interaction with the new musical instruments still stays underdeveloped. In my recent work, I try to address this issue with techniques which include complex gestures and kinesthetic skills. Much of my research has sought to widen the idea of involving gestures from various domains to instrument playing through new interfaces and digital musical instruments. The talk will include examples of design, manufacturing, and performances focusing on the communication between the performer, instrument, and the audience. In the frame of our limited time, I will try to present the highlights of the computer music and acoustics fields in conjunction with engineering, arts, and design through my projects over the past year.
