dc.description.abstract |
Many digital musical instrument design frameworks have
been proposed that are well suited for analysis and comparison. However, not all provide applicable design suggestions,
especially where subtle, important details are concerned.
Using traditional lutherie as a model, we conducted a series of interviews to explore how violin makers “go beyond
the obvious”, and how players perceive and describe subtle
details of instrumental quality. We find that lutherie frameworks provide clear design methods, but are not enough to
make a fine violin. Success comes after acquiring sufficient
tacit knowledge, which enables detailed craft through subjective, empirical methods. Testing instruments for subtle qualities was suggested to be a different skill to playing. Whilst players are able to identify some specific details
about instrumental quality by comparison, these are often
not actionable, and important aspects of “sound and feeling”
are much more difficult to describe. In the DMI domain,
we introduce the term NIMEcraft to describe subtle differences between otherwise identical instruments and their
underlying design processes, and consider how to improve
the dissemination of NIMEcraft. |
