Human:machine:human: Gesture, Sound and Embodiment
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to present an embodied view on human/machine co-creation in general, and musical improvisation in particular. Design/methodology/approach - Questions and propositions are formed by examining personal work in intelligent, interactive system design. Findings - Proper consideration of gestural representation and intentionality leads to enhanced potential for collective expression in human/machine interaction. Originality/value - This approach extends ideas of conversation theory to improvisational contexts based on spontaneous, collective expression.
