When designing musical devices and their tangible interactions, the goal is an intimate convergence between musician and instrument. With half a dozen conferences on the topic, a substantial amount of research has been produced in this research field over the last decades. In this talk, guest speakers Max Neupert and Clemens Wegener will elaborate on the relationship between design and music.
