AudioScapes : Exploring Surface Interfaces for Music Exploration

There is a growing interest in touch-based and gestural
interfaces as alternatives to the dominant mouse, keyboard and
monitor interaction. Content and context-aware visualizations
of audio collections have been proposed as a more effective way
to interact with the increasing amounts of audio data available
digitally. {\it Audioscapes} is a framework for prototyping and
exploring how touch-based and gestural controllers can be used with
state-of-the-art content and context-aware visualizations. By
providing well-defined interfaces and conventions a variety of
different audio collections, controllers and visualization methods
can be combined to create innovative ways of interacting with large
audio collections. We describe the overall system architecture, the
currently available components and specific case studies.
