    Bathing in lightness: an interactive light and sound installation
    (Mensch und Computer 2020 - Tagungsband, 2020) Stimberg, Simon; Brennecke, Angela
    Bathing in Lightness is an interactive light and sound installation that seems to be enlivened by a swarm entity trying to explore its inner world and communicate with the outer one. Consisting of 52 filament light bulbs it visualizes the movement of a particle swarm that is driven by the presence of the viewer and its own inner urge. Visitors can interact with the installation by moving in front of it while their movement is followed by the swarm and thus being translated into light and sound – visible inside the cluster of light bulbs and audible via nearby speakers or headphones.

    Interactive image driven sound
    (Mensch und Computer 2020 - Tagungsband, 2020) Brennecke, Angela; Traber, Markus; Stimberg, Simon; Stockleben, Björn
    This paper describes the work in progress of an interactive audiovisual synthesis application that explores the relationship between user interaction, image sequences and sound in the context of interactive digital arts and media productions. The application generates aesthetically pleasing audiovisual output in interactive and real-time. It is based on an analysis of visual changes in the image sequences which are mapped to musical scales. The application is intended to become an integrated and modular toolkit that supports creative professionals in exploring different combinations of image and sound representations, for instance, in the context of mood representations, artistic ideation and content creation processes. The current implementation marks an initial step into this direction.

    The Virtual Theremin: Designing an Interactive Digital Music Instrument for Film Scene Scoring
    (i-com: Vol. 21, No. 1, 2022) Usabaev, Bela; Eschenbacher, Anna; Brennecke, Angela
    This paper presents a first prototype of a virtual Theremin instrument for accompanying film scenes with sound. The virtual Theremin is implemented as a hybrid application for the web. Sound control is achieved by capturing user gestures with a webcam and mapping the gestures to the corresponding virtual Theremin parameters pitch and volume. Different sound types can be selected. The application’s underlying research is part of the multi-modal digital heritage project KOLLISIONEN which targets to open up the private archive of the Russian film maker Sergej Eisenstein to a broader public in digital form. Eisenstein, a film theorist and pioneer of film montage, was particularly intrigued by the Theremin as an instrument for film sound design. The virtual Theremin presented here is therefore linked to a film scene from the 1929 Soviet drama “The General Line” by Sergej Eisenstein which was never set to music originally. In its first implementation state, the application connects music interaction design with digital heritage in a modular, flexible and playful way and uses contemporary web technologies to enable easy operation and the greatest possible accessibility.
