title={Tabletop tangible interfaces for music performance : design and evaluation},
author={Anna Xamb{\'o}},

}This thesis investigates a new generation of collaborative systems: tabletop tangible interfaces (TTIs) for music performance or musical tabletops. Musical tabletops are designed for professional musical performance, as well as for casual interaction in public settings. These systems support co-located collaboration, offered by a shared interface. However, we still know little about their challenges and opportunities for collaborative musical practice: in particular, how to best support…

Music Information Retrieval in Live Coding: A Theoretical Framework
- Computer ScienceComputer Music Journal
- 2018
It is found that it is still a technical challenge to use high-level features in real time, yet using rhythmic and tonal properties (midlevel features) in combination with text-based information (e.g., tags) helps to achieve a closer perceptual level centered on pitch and rhythm when using MIR in live coding.
