Abstract(in English) In this paper, we discuss the interface design for instruments of general multimedia artwork. As a result of this design investigation, a prototype instrument, the MusicBrush was developed and demonstrated. Combining virtual brush painting and music playing using position-sensitive handsets, the MusicBrush is used to create correlative audio-visual art. The design investigation was based on an examination of existing interface conventions and prior experience with multimedia art creation systems. The distinction between discrete and non-discrete media components was an important issue and thus was central in the development of the MusicBrush. As such, the primary interface of the MusicBrush incorporates discrete and non-discrete input methods, and we demonstrate the suitability of such an interface in practice.
