Abstract

This paper is a progress report from a workgroup of the University of Music Karlsruhe studying Music Technology at the Institut für Musikwissenschaft und Musikinformatik (Institute for Musicology and Music Technology). The group activity is focused on the development and design of computer-controlled instruments - digital music instruments [5]. We will describe three digital music instruments, havedeveloped at the Computer Studio. These instruments are mostly unified by the idea of human gesture and human interaction using new technologies to control the interaction processes. At the same time they were built upon the consciousness of musical tradition taking a fresh approach on everyday objects.
