Playing a musical instrument goes hand-in-hand with many benefits, such as positively impacting mental health or dexterity. Electronic elements have been integrated into traditional musical instruments in the early 1930s to create instruments, such as E-guitars, that offer new ways of music expression. Electric instruments evolved by combining networking and computational capabilities. These new capabilities can be leveraged to further broaden artists' expressiveness, enhance learning scenarios, allow remote collaboration of musicians, and even create entirely new musical instruments.
In this workshop, we will discuss and interact with intelligent music interfaces of any form. Novel music interfaces could be a new adaption of a traditional musical instrument, an interface for learning, or even supporting software. The workshop is planned to be held in person in conjunction with the Augmented Humans International Conference on April 4th in Melbourne, Australia while offering to participate virtually.
