Game Audio & XR: GA13 - Get Inside the Music: Connecting Artists and Audiences through Interactive Music Apps

Presenters:
Justin Paterson, London College of Music, University of West London - London, UK
Rob Toulson, University of Westminster - London, UK

Commercial artists are nowadays empowered to invite listeners deeper inside their music through interactive music apps incorporating gameplay, stem mixers, alternative content, and production/remix features. Bjork, Peter Gabriel, and Massive Attack, for example, have all launched interactive music albums in recent years. The tutorial presenters have also been at the forefront of this movement, collaborating with record labels and music artists to evaluate the commercial and creative opportunities of interactive music.
This tutorial will present a history of interactive music and will demonstrate future audience listening-experiences. Relevant mobile programming interfaces will be discussed alongside the music production workflow for developing interactive music applications. This insight is intended to inspire developers and students to consider their own ideas for engaging listeners more actively with recorded music.

AES Technical Council This session is presented in association with the AES Technical Committee on Recording Technology and Practices
