Electronic music stand performer subsystems and music communication methodologies

A system for conveying body movements, the system comprising:

• an optical capturing unit configured to sense body movements relative to a reference frame within discrete ranges of motion;
• a library of data mapping body movements to discrete instructions associated with the body movements;
• and
• a video processing subsystem coupled to the optical capturing unit and configured to identify a discrete instruction associated with a sensed body movement from the data in the library at least in part by comparing body movements sensed by the optical capturing unit over a time period to data in the library.

A computer-readable storage device comprising instructions that, when executed by a computing system having a processor, cause the computing system to perform operations comprising:

• receiving an indication of a plurality of body movements within discrete ranges of motion;
• interpreting the plurality of body movements into a plurality of discrete performance instructions corresponding to the discrete ranges of motion;
• and
• causing a virtual performance of music based on the plurality of discrete performance instructions corresponding to the discrete ranges of motion.

A method performed by a computing system having a processor, the method comprising:

• storing, in a library, performance instructions associated with body movements;
• receiving, from a sensor device, an indication of a sensed body movement;
• identifying, with the processor, a performance instruction stored in the library and corresponding to the sensed body movement;
• and
• transmitting for display a graphic representation of the identified performance instruction.
