Abstract

Agorá (from Greek word meaning ”gathering space”/ ”public square”) is alive music performance that investigates the performer’s musical memories that are revealed through the performer’s hand gestures. This pro-cess is enabled via a newly developed data-glove named Pointing-at that allows the performer to browse, shape and re-create live and algorithmically his musical memories in a quadraphonic surround setup.

Technical Description:
The Pointing-at data glove is the result of a collaborative research projectbetween the Tyndall National Institute of Research in Cork and the IDC -DMARC at the University of Limerick. This performance investigates the useof the data glove for the purpose of a live music performance in which gesturesare used to create and manipulate sounds in real-time. Special attention waspaid to the mapping algorithms that link gestures and sounds so to facilitatethe audience understanding of the cause-effect mechanisms
