Abstract:

Kind Regards-for a friend is a narrative-driven audiovisual composition that examines the interplay between a human performer and a visual agent. This project was integrated with the development of a new musical interface for the violin bow, and encompassed various strategies for gesture mapping solutions and narrative development. An online audience response survey examined audience experiences of the piece, garnering insights into the effectiveness of our creative and technical processes. Reflections on the project underscored its narrative and interactive strengths, while also identifying music and visual elements that could be further refined to augment the immersive quality of the experience.
