- Akson, an audio-visual environment for networked interaction and performancePublication . Arandas, Luís; Gomes, José Alberto; Penha, RuiIn this article we present Akson, a web-based audiovisual (AV) environment for networked interaction and performance. As a result of research in the context of Braga Media Arts, part of UNESCO’s creative cities network (UCCN), is documented why it was developed, its characteristics as a software that promotes networked artistic practice, as well as the tests performed. Taking advantage of the Internet’s infrastructure, Akson allows the exploration of hundreds of devices scattered around the world and the study of the interface as an extension of the human gesture.
- Directing selfness – a step back from digital collaboration on stagePublication . Arandas, Luis; Gomes, José Alberto; Penha, RuiCollaborative networked performance has been at the forefront of recent proposals in computer music and digital performance research. A feature of its stage effectiveness derives from the composition being often drawn from the instrument or the system. Also, these digital environments are programmed with both the inherent characteristics of human interaction and the properties of networks in mind. The performance Directing Selfness takes a step back from networked interaction using an interface made specifically for performative collaboration through an audio-visual solo. It is made in order to promote a stage-based exploration of a tool not only designed for other performative purposes, but also to promote a unique adaptation of the artist using it.
