Abstract

We present MyoSpat, an interactive system that enables
performers to control sound and light projections through
hand-gestures. MyoSpat is designed and developed using
the Myo armband as an input device and Pure Data (Pd) as
an audio-visual engine. The system is built upon human-
computer interaction (HCI) principles; specifically, tan-
gible computing and embodied, sonic and music interac-
tion design (MiXD). This paper covers a description of the
system and its audio-visual feedback design. Finally, we
evaluate the system and its potential use in exploring em-
bodied, sonic and music interaction principles in different
multimedia contexts.
