Class Definitions
Augmented Physical Object c
| IRI |
https://luciamarock.github.io/Academics/ontology/ontology.ttl#AugmentedPhysicalObject
|
|---|---|
| Is Defined By | Perceptrum Ontology |
| Description |
Physical objects enhanced with embedded computational systems that enable responsive, interactive behavior through human gesture. Unlike traditional objects whose behavior is passive and fixed, augmented physical objects introduce a layer of computational agency that allows them to participate in interaction. |
| Super Class Of |
Augmented Painting c
| IRI |
https://luciamarock.github.io/Academics/ontology/ontology.ttl#AugmentedPainting
|
|---|---|
| Is Defined By | Perceptrum Ontology |
| Description |
An ontological category in contemporary art defining an art form that combines traditional painting with embedded technology, sensors, and artificial intelligence to create interactive, responsive, and networked experiences where touch and visual interaction generate evolving sounds and behaviors. |
| Sub Class Of | Augmented Physical Object c |
Augmented Musical Instrument c
| IRI |
https://luciamarock.github.io/Academics/ontology/ontology.ttl#AugmentedMusicalInstrument
|
|---|---|
| Is Defined By | Perceptrum Ontology |
| Description |
Musical instrument extended with sensors, computation, or actuators that modify or enhance its expressive capabilities. These systems expand traditional instrumental interaction by introducing computational mediation between gesture and sound production. |
| Sub Class Of | Augmented Physical Object c |

Instances & Examples
Augmented Painting Instances
-
Sounding Canvas
(
https://www.perceptrum.net/works/sounding-canvas.html
)
The first body of work developed within Perceptrum, establishing Augmented Painting as a new artistic medium in which paintings acquire expanded expressive capabilities through embedded sensing, sound, and computation. They act as interlocutors: static surfaces that negotiate meaning through the tactile presence of the observer.
Augmented Musical Instrument Instances
-
Feed-Drum
(
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feed-Drum
)
An imperial bass drum with a system of electronic conditioning of the skin conceived by composer Michelangelo Lupone. -
Magnetic Resonator Piano
(
https://andrewmcpherson.org/project/mrp
)
A hybrid acoustic-electronic instrument augmenting the grand piano. -
Feed Guitar
(
https://luciamarock.github.io/Projects/FeedGuitar.html
)
An augmented musical instrument created by Luciano Ciamarone for his Master's Degree thesis at CRM.
Augmented Physical Object Instances
-
Interactive Stage Set Element
(
https://luciamarock.github.io/Projects/AccroccoSonic.html
)
A unique wooden sculpture designed as a relational scenographic element for dance performances. Its structure and functionality combine acoustic principles with artistic creativity, resulting in a versatile object that can also be connected to external augmented musical instruments.
