Hyperscore featured at MIT Media Lab's Human 2.0 Symposium
Harmony Line's Hyperscore® was featured in the MIT Media Lab "Human 2.0" event on May 9, 2007, at MIT's Kresge Auditorium, in Cambridge. The symposium focused on new research initiatives for augmenting mental and physical capabilities to improve the quality of human life.
Dan Ellsey, a patient at the Tewksbury State Hospital who suffers from cerebral palsy, has been participating in Hyperscore pilot programs since 2004, under the direction of Professor Tod Machover's team at the MIT Media Lab. His first Hyperscore composition was performed by the Lowell Philharmonic Orchestra at the hospital’s 150th anniversary celebration that year. Dan presented his latest Hyperscore piece at the Human 2.0 Symposium, the result of continuing work with the application.
