title = "Design issues for new performance systems",
abstract = "The field of new musical performance interfaces is currently undergoing a process of formalisation. This paper considers these developments in the light of both formal product development procedures and the history of musical instrument development. These factors are also considered in relation to the principle of constraint. Constraints focus the process of product development. Constraints also provide stimulus to creativity, both in product development and in musical culture in general. An experimental example illustrates the unpredictability that lies at the heart of musical experience.",
