Abstract [en]
Interactive sound design technology for dance performance often use instant auditive movement feedback which may create the illusion of the dancer causing the sound as well as being a limitation in space for the dancer. This report describes the iterative development of an interactive sound system which instead aims to produce reciprocity between movement input and sound. Using the framework of Model Based Sonification a data processing model is built in a game engine where input data is accumulated before modulating sound assets, creating an interactive electroacoustic composition. Sonification and it's common usages are presented, as well as it's relation to game audio and adaptive music. The role of sonification frameworks in challenges for present day game audio is also discussed.
