Abstract
The main objective of the research is to create a tool, entitled “iAVo (Interactive Audio-Visual Objects)”, which allows the integration of visuals in electronic music performances, and to assess the effectiveness of the application regarding the audience of these performances. This tool should provide a visual feedback to real-time sound manipulation and allow an adequate level of integrated audio-visual creative expression. Qualitative and quantitative methods will be used to gather and examine data from the audience of performances conducted in the course of the research. The tool will be analyzed within the theoretical frameworks of media studies, interaction design and history of new media art.
