“…This kind of approaches is not merely confined to academic research: there are also commerciallyavailable and successful devices that foster intuitive control of music parameters through the detection of body movements. In this sense, it is worth mentioning Microsoft Kinect (Yoo et al, 2011;Kadakal et al, 2014;Graham-Knight and Tzanetakis, 2015), Nintendo's Wiimote (Kiefer et al, 2008;Reed et al, 2008;Wong et al, 2008), and Leap Motion (Silva et al, 2013;Perdana, 2014;Baratè et al, 2019).…”

This paper presents Kibo, a MIDI controller equipped with a simplified tangible user interface. Entirely made of wood, Kibo presents eight geometric extractable solids that can be used to trigger note events and to control musical parameters. In the framework of the cooperation with the Music Informatics Lab of the University of Milan, the distinctive features of the device and their applicability to the field of music education have been investigated. Kibo aims to offer intuitive interaction with music parameters and fosters the acquisition of specific skills in a non-formal learning environment. Benefits are particularly evident for specific target categories of users, including preschool and primary school children and people with both physical and cognitive special needs.

“…Hunt et al (2004) discuss topics relating to the use of music technology in music therapy settings. Larsen et al (2016) and Graham-Knight and Tzanetakis (2015) provide reviews of existing instruments from academia and commercial products, from music therapy contexts and others. We identified five commercially available products which fit our survey criteria for Accessible Therapeutic Instruments (Table 6), of which one (version 2.0 of the Skoog), was also crowdfunded (see Section 2).…”

Designing musical instruments to make performance accessible to novice musicians is a goal which long predates digital technology. However, just in the space of the past 6 years, dozens of instrument designs have been introduced in various academic venues and in commercial crowdfunding campaigns. In this paper, we draw comparisons in design, evaluation and marketing across four domains: crowdfunding campaigns on Kickstarter and Indiegogo; the New Interfaces for Musical Expression (NIME) conference; conferences in human-computer interaction (HCI); and researchers creating accessible instruments for children and adults with disabilities. We observe striking differences in approach between commercial and academic projects, with less pronounced differences between each of the academic communities. The paper concludes with general reflections on the identity and purpose of instruments for novice musicians, with suggestions for future exploration.

“…This requires novel interaction mechanisms, vocabularies, and user interfaces to support creative processes for experts and novices alike. [7][8][9][10][11] At the same time, music consumption and appreciation fundamentally relies on human audience members. Audience engagement can improve through novel user experience paradigms, social networking, and other techniques targeted at improving audience immersion and inclusion.…”
