Abstract

Since the beginning of Virtual Reality many artistic applications were developed, showing how this technology could be exploited not only from a technical point of view, but also in the field of feelings and emotions. Nowadays music is one of the most interesting field of application for Virtual Reality, and many environments provide the user with means to express her/himself; our work follows this direction, aiming at developing a set of multimodal musical interfaces. In this paper we present a first simple virtual sequencer combined with a low cost tactile feedback device: some preliminary experiments were done to analyze how skilled musicians approach this unusual way of making music.
