This gives me a better idea. It is not by chance that they focus on
physical modeling. There are many ways to make sounds with a computer
where haptic interfaces makes much less sense.
During a recent improvisation workshop, some people complained that I
was totally inexpressive while playing, even if I was able to make
"gestural" sounds and make use of the whole dynamic range which is more
extreme than the rest of the players (instrumental).
I noticed that my teacher can (on occasion) use an artificial gestuality
(that is, not justified by strict interaction with the device).
For me this is not necessarily a problem, this split being a part of the
nature of playing electronic devices.
