“…Indeed, these findings stress the importance of considering NMP as culturally situated practice in which bodily schemas are inherently part of the musical meaning and embodied means through which making sense of the networked space [7]. Both music playing and tuition rely on a significant repertoire of nonverbal forms of communication, and in the chamber music context, the types of body language and mutual cues embody the typical semicircular seating arrangement and the musical interpretation of the shared score.…”

“…Computer systems for networked musical interaction have been categorized according to their temporal (synchronous vs. asynchronous) and spatial (co-located vs. remote) dimensions of the performance [2], whereas a wide part of the scienti c literature has focused on the technological and perceptual issues in real-time performance between musicians located in remote rooms, and requiring the highest degree of synchronicity, typically over teleconference-based communication media [3][4][5]. From a di erent angle, for years, research in telematic arts and music has been questioning the NMP communication model, stressing instead the role of the body in the network, and proposing an interpretive model of the emerging space, wherein questions of presence, plausible representations, sense of agency, and ow become crucial [6][7][8]. According to this view, telematic systems are conceived as proper instruments, whose apparent limitations are exploited instead in terms of creative a ordances, for music purposes and interactions [9].…”

“…Sensory breadth and depth, degree of control, and anticipation of events, together with the overall interactivity of the environment, represent crucial elements in both presence and performance, being the first a prerequisite for the second [26]. e goal of this pilot study was to set the experimental playground, by exploring the NMP music learning scenario from a perspective (i.e., the presence experience), which is often recalled in the NMP literature, but that has never been systematically investigated [7]. In this respect, the 5 sessions collected do not make the underway study mature enough to provide conclusions supported by statistical evidence.…”

Cooperative music making in networked environments has been subject of extensive research, scientific and artistic. Networked music performance (NMP) is attracting renewed interest thanks to the growing availability of effective technology and tools for computer-based communications, especially in the area of distance and blended learning applications. We propose a conceptual framework for NMP research and design in the context of classical chamber music practice and learning: presence-related constructs and objective quality metrics are used to problematize and systematize the many factors affecting the experience of studying and practicing music in a networked environment. To this end, a preliminary NMP experiment on the effect of latency on chamber music duos experience and quality of the performance is introduced. The degree of involvement, perceived coherence, and immersion of the NMP environment are here combined with measures on the networked performance, including tempo trends and misalignments from the shared score. Early results on the impact of temporal factors on NMP musical interaction are outlined, and their methodological implications for the design of pedagogical applications are discussed.

“…Content may change prior to final publication. in the context of the networked music performance field [100], [123]. As reported in [89], current video-conference systems involved in networked music performance typically are characterized by a higher degree of latency for the video stream compared to systems dedicated to the audio communications.…”

Music in Extended Realities

The intersection between music and Extended Reality (XR) has grown significantly over the past twenty years, amounting to an established area of research today. The use of XR technologies represents a fundamental paradigm shift for various musical contexts as they disrupt traditional notions of musical interaction by enabling performers and audiences to interact musically with virtual objects, agents, and environments. This article both surveys and expands upon the knowledge accumulated in existing research in this area to build a foundation for future works that bring together Music and XR. To this end, we created a freely available dataset of 260 publications in this space and conducted an in-depth analysis covering 199 works in the last decade. We conducted this analysis using a list of conceptual dimensions belonging to technical, artistic, perceptual and methodological domains. This review of the literature is complemented with a set of interviews with domain experts with the goal of establishing a definition for the emergent field of Musical XR, i.e., the field of music in Extended Realities. Based on the results of the conducted review, a research agenda for the field is proposed.

“…Our point here is not that Soundcool is the best tool for telematic performance. Indeed, many approaches and systems have been created, often exploring particular ideas about the role of time, distance, synchronization, and communication in musical interaction (Mills 2019). Instead, our point is that such a simple tool can be extended relatively easily to serve a purpose that was not anticipated by the original designers.…”

This article presents a free framework for collaborative creation of interactive and experimental computer music called Soundcool. It is designed to fill a gap between rigid ready-to-use applications and flexible programming languages. The system offers easy-to-use elements for generating and processing sound, much like ready-made applications, but it enables flexible configuration and control, more like programming languages. The system runs on personal computers with an option for control via smartphones, tablets, and other devices using the Open Sound Control (OSC) protocol. Originally developed to support a new music curriculum, Soundcool is being used at different educational institutions in Spain, Portugal, Italy, and Romania through EU-funded Erasmus+ projects. In this article, we present our system and showcase three different scenarios as examples of how our system meets its objectives as an easy-to-use, versatile, and creative tool.
