HCI methodology for evaluating musical controllers: a case study
presentation
posted on 2023-06-08, 10:17 authored by Chris KieferChris Kiefer, Nick Collins, Geraldine FitzpatrickThere is small but useful body of research concerning theevaluation of musical interfaces with HCI techniques. Inthis paper, we present a case study in implementing thesetechniques; we describe a usability experiment which eval-uated the Nintendo Wiimote as a musical controller, andreflect on the effectiveness of our choice of HCI methodolo-gies in this context. The study offered some valuable results,but our picture of the Wiimote was incomplete as we lackeddata concerning the participants’ instantaneous musical ex-perience. Recent trends in HCI are leading researchers totackle this problem of evaluating user experience; we reviewsome of their work and suggest that with some adaptation itcould provide useful new tools and methodologies for computer musicians.
