Oyvind Brandtsegg, from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, has created a new link between composition and improvisation.
His ImproSculpt software splits any live or recorded sound into a number of very short (1 to 10 millisecond)sound segments that can be infinitely reshuffled, making it possible to vary the music with no change in the fundamental theme, all controlled by a body sensor.
