Abstract:This thesis has explored the design of a musical interface aimed at allowing patients without formal musical training to express themselves during music interventions. The prototype focused on the ideas of musical improvisation and mirroring a person’s movements through sonic features. The instrument-inspired controller was not meant to replace specialists but to offer them a flexible tool that allows the ones in need to collaborate non-verbally. Such a device offers promising opportunities for both individuals and groups in interventions where they actively engage with music. Whether the musical interface is genuinely capable of that remains at the stage of a demo.
