Musical technologies are evolving in such a way that they start to resemble the people that use
them. In this vision it seems pertinent to abandon the conception of musicians as users of musical
instruments in favor of machines and humans interacting to make music. Both the machine and
the human can be modeled as embodied cognitive agents that comprise a network of musical
gestures. These gestures are multi-modal signals that allow the agents to exert influence upon
each other towards making music. This standpoint integrates traditional and novel music-making
technologies, towards a better understanding of musical interaction.
