The RHYME project members Fredrik Olofsson, Birgitta Cappelen and Anders-Petter Andersson contribute to the collaborative student course between AHO and KhiO on “Musical Interaction and E-textile”. The first week of the three week course ended with a presentation on Friday the 21. October at AHO. The AHO students have worked on musical interaction and the relation to the musical artefacts’ shape and structure in a chosen use context. The KhiO students had in the same week an introduction to electronics.
The next week (Oct 24-28) the KhiO and AHO students worked together with focus on the textile qualities and created their own e-textile, embedding the sound, sensors, wire and light into the textile.
The last week they put it all together and created a new Musical Artefact based on RHYME iDevice and iPhone/iPod Touch. The workshop ended with a public presentation and an exhibition at KhiO the 4. November. The projects->
