Introducing the Causilo: using causal inference to inuence collaboration in a shared music making environment

https://aimc2023.pubpub.org/pub/iw6cot8n

This paper presents early development of a novel method of affecting inter-player co-ordination in a shared music making environment. Highlighting different approaches to encouraging inter-player collaborative a potential method of using statistical inference to compare player movement is highlighted. Questioning whether such individualistic quantification is relevant within an entanglement, the paper goes on explore whether an observation method can be adapted to become a system of affecting what it observes. The paper presents user studies, highlighting user experience that shows this may be possible. Finally, issues are raised and future work to develop the experience further is identified.
