Project :: Engaging Creativity

Engaging Creativity

This project set out to explore how to support creativity with musical interface for non-musicians without professional musical knowledge and skills, in order to offer a positive and fulling interactive experience for users. A central focus of this research is the concept of creative engagement: users are put in a creative position to contribute to the interactive system and thus are engaged in an active and constructive process. Novel musical interfaces, including graphical musical interface and tangible musical interface, were designed and developed for the experimental study to explore the process of creative engagement with musical interface, and to investigate the design attributes on interface for supporting creative engagement.
