In my Masters degree, I support my research with making a New Interface for Musical Expression (NIME).
This is currently on the writing and research stage, and I have recently been looking in to the MnM set of Externals for Max / MSP. I hope to make a simplified version of something similar. Even though I understand that there is a need to use maths to explain how things work, I do not think that this is necessary to be viewed by the end user.
I would be interested to see successful implementations of A.I. / Adaptive systems in Mapping. There does not seem to be too many examples around!
