Dufour was instrumental in identifying the need for space to check the parametres quickly and accurately. It was this observation that led to the development of the interpolations screen, which can memorise the status of all the system’s parametres (a “snapshot”, as we would now call it), and enables the user to move very quickly from one configuration to another by jumps or interpolations (gradual evolution). He also contributed significantly to the realization of the Acousmographe, a software for graphical representation of sound phenomena, produced by Institut national de l’audiovisuel.
