Abstract

The movie shows the evolution of a computer-based game for conducting a virtual orchestra system that enables users of any skill level to conduct a virtual symphony orchestra in real-time. One of the main goals was to enable children to experience classical music in a playful manner by combining an immersive gaming experience with educational aspects. The movie focuses on the exploration of alternative input devices, emphasizing the end users point of view - the conductor's view -, and it illustrates several audio and video processing aspects during the recording sessions with the musicians.
