Using the web-based cooperative music prototyping environment CODES in learning situations

Abstract

This poster presents CODES - Cooperative Sound Design, a webbased environment for cooperative music prototyping, that aims to provide users (musicians or non-specialists in music) with the possibility of creating musical examples (prototypes) that can be tested, modified and constantly played, both by their initial creator and by their partners, who will cooperate for the refining of the initial musical prototype. CODES main aspects - mainly with respect to interaction and cooperation issues in learning situations are briefly discussed. © Springer-Verlag 2004.
