Thesis
Tsiros, A. (2016). A Multidimensional Sketching Interface for Visual Interaction with Corpus-Based Concatenative Sound Synthesis. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/463438

The present research sought to investigate the correspondence between auditory and visual feature dimensions and to utilise this knowledge in order to inform the design of audio-visual mappings for visual control of sound synthesis. The first stage o... Read More about A Multidimensional Sketching Interface for Visual Interaction with Corpus-Based Concatenative Sound Synthesis.

Morpheme (2016)
Digital Artefact
Tsiros, A. (2016). Morpheme. [MaxMSP 5 32 bit software]

This is a MaxMSP 5 32 bit software, Morpheme allows the control of a concatenative synthesis module (IMTR CataRT) through the act of sketching on a digital canvas. The aim is to enable synthesis of sound and the expression of compositional intention... Read More about Morpheme.
