Music Biology: All This Useful Beauty
Some healthy people fail to derive pleasure from music despite otherwise preserved perceptual and reward responses. Such 'musical anhedonia' implies the existence of music-specific brain reward mechanisms, which could provide a substrate for music to acquire biological value.
متن کاملOn the mathematics of beauty: beautiful music
In this paper, we will study the simplest kind of beauty that can be found in a simple piece of music and can be appreciated universally. The proposed model suggest that there is a link between beautiful music and the Dyson distribution which seems to be the result of a deeper optimisation process between randomness and regularity. Then we show that beautiful music need to satisfy a more fundam...

Firstly, the ‘beautiful’ has been dismissed as philosophically insignificant in comparison to the ‘sublime’ by an intellectual tradition tracing itself back to Immanuel Kant’s Critiqu...
متن کاملSearching for Beauty in Music — Applications of Zipf ’ s Law in MIDI - Encoded Music
This project applies Zipf's law on musical pieces encoded in MIDI. Our hypothesis is that this will allow us to identify musical pieces that humans find “pleasing, beautiful, harmonious.” Specifically, we have identified an initial set of attributes (metrics) of music pieces on which to apply Zipf’s law. These metrics include pitch of musical events, duration of musical events, the combination ...
متن کاملMachine learning analysis of the cultural and cross-cultural aspects of beauty in music
Can machine learning algorithms be trained to recognise beauty in music? To what extent is human recognition of beauty in music cultural, or crosscultural? Music is prevalent in all human cultures. Music information retrieval is a growing field in which computational techniques have been applied to many musical problems such as genre recognition and measuring musical similarity. Computational e...
