Abstract

This paper introduces a subtle interface, which evolved from the design of an alternative gestural controller in the development of a performance interface. The conceptual idea used is based on that of the traditional Bodhran instrument, an Irish frame drum. The design process was user-centered and involved professional Bodhran players and through prototyping and user-testing the resulting Vodhran emerged.
