Abstract

Evaluation in the research field of New Interfaces for Musical Expression (NIME) has recently reached high attention (Barbosa, Malloch, Huot, & Wanderley, 2015). A tendency towards a musician-centered perspective can be observed by a majority of evaluation studies that investigated the performer’s perspective (Barbosa et al., 2015; Morreale, Angeli, & O’Modhrain, 2014). This emphasis has apparently been present since the beginning of the NIME-conference in 2001 and may be a result of the conference’s origin from the field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) (e.g. Wanderley & Orio, 2002).
