This paper introduces two match-up style VR application in the theme of Paper-craft Sumo using displacement data The first VR system captures the jumping motion data, and calculates the movement of the Paper-craft Sumo Wrestlers, which are projected on the screens, using those data. Incorporating the result from the evaluation experiment of this system, the second VR system is developed. The second VR system captures the waving motion data, and calculates the movement of the Paper-craft Sumo Wrestlers, which are projected onto the floating screen on water, using those data. Both systems capture the player′s motion data as displacement values by means of the distance sensors, and the data are used for their interaction model. New body sensory style applications are implemented by using intuitive and robust interaction methods.

Research on the application of Interactive Evolutionary Computation (IEC) to the field of musical composition has been improved in recent years, marking an interesting parallel to the current trend of applying human characteristics or sensitivities to computers systems. However, past techniques developed for the IEC-based composition have not necessarily proven very effective for the sake of professional use. This is due to the large difference between data representation used by IEC and authorized classic music composition. To solve these difficulties, we purpose a new IEC approach to music composition based on the classical music theory. In this paper, we describe an established system according to the above idea, and how successfully we can compose a piece using the system.
