From Me to Us
30-31 October 2003
Media Lab. / UIAH, Helsinki, Finland

From Me to Us is a computer generated music installation for participants of all kinds of musical backgrounds. It is an improvisation process, interacting with MIDI instruments by using electric guitar as an interface. During the moment of playing, there is a contact between the sound created by the participant and the sound generated by the computer. The improvisation turns into a continuous composition as long as a participant takes an active role in the installation. An important goal of the From Me to Us installation is to provide a situation where a participant can experience a musical collective improvisation.
