dc.description.abstractMany people listen to music as a background activity during various tasks, such as driving, walking their dog, or showering. The availability of streaming services has made music more convenient and widespread. The Human Record Needle requires users to perform rhythmic movements to activate the music, engaging them physically in the listening experience. This approach allows both musicians and non-musicians to appreciate listening to music beyond just background noise. This exhibition introduces the Human Record Needle as a novel interface for playing music from a MIDI score.
