Raja

Raja is an interactive dance performance, a joint project together with Nokia Research Center, utilizing motion-tracking technology with the creation of real-time music of the dance piece. The system responds with one dedicated individual instrument for each dancer and directly to the dancer’s movements. Sound design ideas developed further in parallel with the structure of the choreography.
