A gesture-driven, composition system framework called "The Hand Composer" is presented. The framework is based on the analysis of the existing relationships between music generative models and musical composition in the context of the 20th century music historical background. A short definition of three music generative models with their control parameters is provided. The system framework is based on a number of interactive machines performing various patterns of music composition and producing a stream of MIDI data to be compatible with a Disklavier performance. Hand gestural input, captured by the Leap Motion Sensor, can control some parameters of the music composing machines, changing interactively and in real time their musical output.

Abstract

A gesture-driven, composition system framework called "The Hand Composer" is presented. The framework is based on the analysis of the existing relationships between music generative models and musical composition in the context of the 20th century music historical background. A short definition of three music generative models with their control parameters is provided. The system framework is based on a number of interactive machines performing various patterns of music composition and producing a stream of MIDI data to be compatible with a Disklavier performance. Hand gestural input, captured by the Leap Motion Sensor, can control some parameters of the music composing machines, changing interactively and in real time their musical output.
