"Hope Song is a Radio Piece to be completed in the web,
by interacting with virtual sound boxes, we created for this purpose.
In case you are listening to Soundart Radio in the web,
please open another window and go to the following blog, to interact
and complete our song:
http://handlewithlove-project.blogspot.com
Inside the blog, bellow, you will find some virtual sound boxes.
You can activate each one of them and play it over and over again,
anytime you want, during this sound piece.
Here, in these sound boxes, you will find our voices and sounds, that
representsome of our actions.
We invite you to take part in our manifest, by taking our voices and
gestures as yours, helping us to complete our song.
If you are not listening to this piece in the web and you have no access to
the internet, you may feel a little bit distant and isolated. This is a
space you can not reach. You are not connected to this virtual community and your
world is incomplete."

(PDF) Encouraging Witting Participation and Performance in Digital Live Art | © Jennifer G. Sheridan, Nick Bryan-Kinns, Alice Bayliss, 2007 Published by the British Computer Society People and Computers XXI – HCI… but not as we know it: Proceedings of HCI 2007 Linden J. Ball, M. Angela Sasse, Corina Sas, Thomas C. Ormerod, Alan Dix, Peter Bagnall, and Tom McEwan (Editors) | "We describe a framework for characterizing people’s behavior with Digital Live Art. Our framework considers people’s wittingness, technical skill, and interpretive abilities in relation to the performance frame. Three key categories of behavior with respect to the performance frame are proposed: performing, participating, and spectating. We exemplify the use of our framework by characterizing people’s interaction with a DLA - iPoi. This DLA is based on the ancient Maori art form of poi and employs a wireless, peer-to-peer exertion interface. The design goal of iPoi is to draw people into the performance frame and support transitions from audience to participant and on to performer. We reflect on iPoi in a public performance and outline its key design features."
