Abstract

This paper will discuss the 'Activating Archives' project, a community based project that focusses on the design and production of novel methods of musical playback intended to expose members of the general public to rare and traditional instruments from around the world in an interactive, tactile and playful manner. Additionally, this paper will discuss the design of the first Activating Archives interface, the Shogi Board; a novel method of composing music with sampled Japanese instruments, primarily aimed at members of the general public with no prior musical education.
