Title A name given to the resource VCA Interactive Composition students in the Grainger Museum in the Living Instruments project 2019 Subject The topic of the resource Living Instruments; How it Plays: Innovations in Percussion Description An account of the resource The B.Music Interactive Composition students photographed here in the Grainger Museum are participating in the Living Instruments Project, an interdisciplinary collaboration that digitally preserves and transforms instruments in the Grainger Museum collection into playable virtual instruments for interactive display, public access and creative engagement. This project was funded by a Melbourne Engagement Grant, 2019. The project takes the relatively new area of virtual instrument design based on mapping ‘real’ instruments (via sampling their sound) to new tactile digital interfaces for re-use and creative application. The project engages with the unique and culturally valuable Grainger Museum instrument collection and brings contemporary sound making practices together with digital instrument design to create virtual Grainger instruments.
