Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for modifying an audio parameter based on a gesture. The technique includes acquiring sensor data associated with a hand of a user and analyzing the sensor data to determine at least one hand position. The technique further includes determining, based on the at least one hand position, an interaction between a first virtual object that corresponds to an audio event and a second virtual object that corresponds to the hand of the user. The technique further includes, based on the interaction, modifying a spatial audio parameter associated with the audio event to generate a modified audio stream and causing the modified audio stream to be reproduced for output to the user.
