Abstract :
The use of multimedia with performance arts has a rich history. This paper proposes an innovative approach for the use of a multimedia application with performance arts, through the integration of interactive and generative digital animation. The application and its development are described. The interface, which is part of the visual experience produced by the application, consists of two rows and two columns of controls, positioned in the edges of the screen. The application was submitted to an evaluation, which had encouraging results. The evaluation method is presented and its results are interpreted. Future developments are discussed.
