Abstract

The BigBang rubette is a gestural music visualization and composition tool that was developed with the goal to reduce the distances between the user, the mathematical framework, and the musical result. In its early stages, described for instance in [1043, 1045], it enabled defining, manipulating, and transforming Score denotators using an intuitive visual and gestural interface. Later on, it was generalized for transformationtheoretical paradigms based on the ontological dimension of embodiment, consisting of facts, processes, and gestures, and the communication between these levels [1042].
