Overview
~6 hours of expert duo free improvisations with per-player audio stems and synchronized video. Here we show a selection of clips across musician pairings.
Annotations
Bidirectional: each performer annotated their own intentions and their perception of their partner's actions using our proposed communication model.
How to use
Select Mixture or an individual stem, then hover to preview a moment and click to play from there. Bars show improvisation states from each player's perspective.
