UdK Berlin: Lecture Benjamin K. Bacon - Design Strategies for New Notations and Choreographic Interaction
UdK Berlin Sound Studies and Sonic Arts, Lietzenburger Str. 45, 10789 Berlin, Raum 314
This talk, rooted in Benjamin K. Bacon’s latest research on information design in notation and novel digital musical instruments, explores how musical notation can function as a perceptual and interactive interface. Bridging music composition, human-computer interaction, and information design, Bacon presents notation as a choreographic tool, one that shapes behaviour and mediates the relationship between performer, technology, and intention.
Benjamin K. Bacon is a Berlin-based composer, performer, and researcher working at the intersection of human-computer interaction, music notation, and the information design of musical compositions. He is currently completing his PhD at Technische Universität Berlin’s Audio Communication Group, where his research explores embodied engagement and notation systems in new media performance.
