ABSTRACT:

This seminar will explore a set of case studies carried out within Emma Frid’s postdoctoral research project focused on Accessible Digital Musical Instruments (ADMIs). The work revolves around a collaboration with a group of pre-verbal children with profound and multiple learning disabilities, and musical interfaces designed with and for this group. The seminar will explore results from long-term studies spanning over several years, and challenges, methodological considerations, and evaluation strategies for ADMIs, based on the following publications: Customizing and Evaluating Accessible Multisensory Music Experiences with Pre-Verbal Children (2022), Haptic Music Players for Children with Profound and Multiple Learning Disabilities (2022), Collaborative Music-Making: Special Educational Needs School Assistants as Facilitators in Performances with ADMIs (2023), and Musical Robots: Overview and Methods for Evaluation (2023).
