“…One notable exception is the work by Tibau et al (Tibau et al, 2019), who explored intergenera-tional music co-listening between grandparents and young grandchildren. This project was parent-mediated as the parents shared music on behalf of the children, who were between 1.5 to 5 years old.…”

“…Previously, in the FamilySong project, Tibau et al (Tibau et al, 2019) showed how co-listening to music became a shared experience between grandparents, young grandchildren, and their parents, which strengthened their social and family bonds. This work expands on this prior work by highlighting the role of positive shared experiences in the grandparent-teenage grandchild dynamic.…”

“…Likewise, maintaining close relationships with grandparents helps to improve mental health in late adolescents and young adults (Ruiz & Silverstein, 2007). Such interactions help older adults view aging more positively (Moffatt et al, 2013), provide a means to pass on their cultural identity (Liaqat et al, 2021;Tibau et al, 2019), and support general well-being (McCloskey, 2008).…”

“…Collaborative music listening (which we will refer to as 'co-listening') provides an avenue for supporting serendipitous interactions and inter-generational relationships (Tibau et al, 2019). Co-listening in various distributed or online contexts, such as within families (Lottridge et al, 2009;Tibau et al, 2019), between peers (Stewart et al, 2018), or even between strangers (Kirk et al, 2016) can help to create feelings of social and emotional connectedness (Dassa et al, 2014;Tibau et al, 2019), and support meaningful interaction. As the social, emotional, and cognitive benefits of engagement in music are prevalent across generations (Majeski & Stover, 2019), we propose music co-listening over video conferencing as a mechanism to understand the unique characteristics of intergenerational interaction in the context of online co-listening experiences.…”

Background: Meaningful intergenerational interaction can help older adults view aging more positively, provide a means to pass on their cultural identity, and support general well-being. However, maintaining intergenerational relationships may be difficult due to geographical separation, lack of common conversation topics, scheduling challenges, and recently, pandemic-related restrictions. We explored music co-listening over a typical video-conferencing platform to see how such platforms can support a rich and sustained connectedness between grandparents and teen grandchildren. Objective: In this research, we explored the following questions: What interaction and conversation patterns happen when older adults and grandchildren share their music with each other over a synchronous video conferencing tool? What types of intergenerational interactions around music co-listening online should communications technology support, in order to support inter-generational conversation? Method: We conducted a qualitative study where a grandparent and teen grandchild colistened to favourite songs and had a conversation about them. Results: From this exploratory study, we found that the inclusion of music provided a 'Ticket-to-Talk' between our dyads (6 dyads, 12 participants) by supporting peripheral quality interaction with mu-sic. Our 'Private DJ' mechanism simplified the process of colistening to music online and conversing around it for the dyads. The planning of songs to share, anticipating the other party's song selections, watching the partner's song selection, and having time between the songs to have a conversation, all seemed to contribute to making the synchronous intergenerational communication enjoyable between our dyads. Conclusion: Our results support the ongoing design of online family communication technologies to include increased support for co-activities such as music co-listening, to make it easier for separated family members to have meaningful and sustained communications.

We present two practice-situated participatory investigations using networked wearable sensors to develop movement-responsive collectively playable musical instruments: a series of four collocated workshops for expert dancers and a distance learning course in which students use wearable technology to enhance embodied learning and feelings of connectedness telematically. We reflect on our exploration of techniques for structuring ensemble improvisations augmented with bespoke digital musical instruments using aggregate statistical measures, such as variance of participants’ physical orientation as an index of group intention. Participatory design exchanges top-down design methodologies with bottom-up approaches consulting actors’ interests. We follow this approach by evolving our instruments through abductive experiments and trial-and-error tinkering, without strong theories, methods, or models, using elementary signal processing techniques that are meaningfully understood and modified by participants. Our experiences suggest useful scaffolding techniques for educational transdisciplinary research-creation communities seeking to explore relational ensemble dynamics in telematic and/or physically collocated settings using accessible wearable technologies. Through creative inquiry and participation, technical objects can become bearers of sense and meaning rather than instating mystifying or alienating relations for the participants.
