Abstrakt: This article explores new artistic possibilities through four different examples of digital environments where live performance and virtual physical models come together. Physical models (specifically mass-spring systems) are used to enhance mappings between human movement and digital rendering. In the case of multimodal rendering, physical models improve the cross-modal coherence. Given a physical model's capacity to simulate physical behaviours, they can also be used to visualise or to simulate human movement qualities, and even to simulate a dancer's virtual partner. More applications certainly remain to be tested, but the present study opens new avenues for the exploration of the complex and physically plausible behaviours of mass-spring systems in the context of both artistic practice and art pedagogy.
