In this project, eye tracking researchers and computer music composers collaborate to create musical compositions that are played with the eyes. A commercial eye tracker (LC Technologies Eyegaze) is connected to a music and multimedia authoring environment (Max/MSP/Jitter). The project addresses issues of both noise and control: How will the performance benefit from the noise inherent in eye trackers and eye movements, and to what extent should the composition encourage the performer to try to control a specific musical outcome? Providing one set of answers to these two questions, the authors create an eye-controlled composition, EyeMusic v1.0, which was selected by juries for live performance at computer music conferences.
