In this project we have developed reactive instruments for
performance. Reactive instruments provide feedback for
the performer thereby providing a more dynamic
experience. This is achieved through the use of haptics and
robotics. Haptics provide a feedback system to the control
surface. Robotics provides a way to actuate the instruments
and their control surfaces. This allows a highly coordinated
“dance” between performer and the instrument. An
application for this idea is presented as a linear slide
interface. Reactive interfaces represent a dynamic way for
music to be portrayed in performance.
