  • Scorelight: Playing with a Human-Sized Laser Pick-Up
    Proceedings of the 2010 Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression (NIME 2010), Sydney, Australia scoreLight: playing with a human-sized laser pick-up A. Cassinelli,∗ Y. Kuribara, A. Zerroug, M. Ishikawa D. Manabey Ishikawa-Komuro Laboratory, University of Tokyo Rhyzomatics ABSTRACT scoreLight is a playful musical instrument capable of gene- rating sound from the lines of drawings as well as from the edges of three-dimensional objects nearby (including every- day objects, sculptures and architectural details, but also the performer's hands or even the moving silhouettes of dancers). There is no camera nor projector: a laser spot explores shapes as a pick-up head would search for sound over the surface of a vinyl record - with the significant dif- ference that the groove is generated by the contours of the drawing itself.
