North-American researcher at INESC TEC to prepare Digitópia Collective concert

The North-American researcher is currently collaborating in the project “Bridging the gap between performers and the audience using networked smartphones”, whose result will be three music pieces to be presented at INESC TEC’s anniversary concert, on 26 October of this year. The audience will be participating in the even using their smartphones, providing an interesting environment between the audience and the performers.

Neil Leonard will also write one of the pieces to be presented at the Digitópia Collective concert, which will then be repeated in Boston, in March 2016.

Other than this piece, there will also be music pieces by Carlos Guedes and Rui Penha (both researchers at INESC TEC’s Centre for Telecommunications and Multimedia, CTM), and José Alberto Gomes (Curator at Digitópia). The pieces will be interpreted by André Dias, Gilberto Bernardes (CTM - INESC TEC) and Digitópia Collective.
