ABSTRACT:
A system and method is provided for navigating a manifold in a high-dimensional space and to interface sound to movement. According to the system of the invention, an input movement sensor operates to capture movement of an object in relation to the manifold. The captured movement is then communicated to generate a control signal in a higher dimensional phase space. A window space translates information from the phase space to render a representation of the relation between the location of the object and the manifold. Sound quality changes are related to movement. Sound output is via a sound synthesizer which generates sound relating to input movement. In a preferred embodiment, movement of an object in relation to a manifold is captured in a three-dimensional virtual reality environment. In a preferred embodiment the manifold is sound generated. The captured movement is then communicated in order to generate a higher dimensional phase space. A window space is also generated for mapping information from the phase space to render a representation of the relationship between the location of the object and the manifold. The representation can then be displayed.
