The activities at the Computer Music Lab mainly consist of Applied Research, Education, Production. Interaction is the keyword that characterises the activity of the Lab. Infrared beams and video captured image processing technologies have been taken into consideration in order to design and carry out original gesture interfaces for remote sensing (i.e. without mechanical and/or electrical links) moving objects handled by performers or direct gesture of the human body . Many interactive multimedia operas have been produced and presented in various important events at national and iternational levels.
