dc.descriptionVoyage to the Other Shore is an interactive composition. As an international student from the South China coastline, I have been studying here at the University of Oregon near a coastline in Northwest America. The meaning of “other shore,” for me, could be either to a distant land or to my native homeland. During more than two years, I have learned and experienced things from my school, daily life, social media and culture here in the U.S. All of these ideas interest me and are the motivations of this piece.en_US
dc.description.abstractVoyage to the Other Shore is an interactive musical composition that uses the Microsoft Xbox 360 Kinect sensor as the interface for performance. This piece uses Delicode NI Mate to receive data from the Kinect, Max/MSP/Jitter as the environment to execute data mapping and scaling, and Symbolic Sound's Kyma system as the sound-producing, final performance environment. The Kinect transforms body movement, which look like conducting and dancing motions, into data streams that controls the sonic fabric of the composition. Musical recording from both musical and non-musical sources were made in both in United States and China to form the fundamental material of the composition. The composition is approximately nine minutes in duration and has eight sections each representing the different emotions and moods I experienced during the time of my stay here in U.S. and how two cultures impact me.en_US
