Sažetak
This paper presents a system for controlling the structure of synthesized sounds at the waveform level using physical gestures. The purpose of the system is to allow intuitive, natural, and immediate interaction with a sound synthesis model based on a non-standard synthesis technique. Instead of manipulating numerical parameters which are, in case of non- standard synthesis, typically abstract and without acoustical meaning, musicians can shake a mobile device in order to shape the structure of synthesized waveforms. The system receives raw data captured from accelerators, extracts relevant statistical features, and maps them into parameters of a dynamic stochastic synthesizer. Mapping is based on fuzzy logic in order to ensure a non-linear and non-injective relation defined within explicit mapping rules. Experimentation proves that the system provides natural, immediate, and expressive control which is convenient both in the composition process and in live performances.
