A computer program has been written which composes blues melodies to fit a given backing chord sequence. The program 1s compri sed of an analysis stage followed by a synthesis stage. The analysis stage takes blues tunes and produces zero, first and second order Markov transition tables coveri ng both pitches and rhythms. In order to capture the rel at ionship between harmony and melody, a set o...
متن کاملUnsupervised Learning and Interactive Jazz/Blues Improvisation
We present a new domain for unsupervised learning: automatically customizing the computer to a specific melodic performer by merely listening to them improvise. We also describe BoB, a system that trades customized real-time solos with a specific musician. We develop a probabilistic mixture model, derived from the multinomial distribution, for the clustering and generation of variable sample-si...
متن کاملBlues for Gary: Design Abstractions for a Jazz Improvisation Assistant
We describe the design and implementation of a tool to help students learn the art of jazz improvisation. The tool integrates elements of database, AI in the form of automatic melody generation, and human interface design. We describe the philosophy of using several coordinated mini-languages to provide user specifications for various aspects of the tool, including melody and chord representati...
متن کاملPlanning Human-Computer Improvisation
Improvisation intrinsically carries a dialectic between spontaneity/reactivity and long-term planning/organization. This paper transposes this dialectic to interactive human-computer improvisation where the computer has to interleave various generative processes. They require different levels of prior knowledge, and follow a coarser improvisation plan driven by real-time interactions with the m...
متن کاملDirected Improvisation by Computer Characters
We present a directed improvisation paradigm, in which computer characters improvise a joint course of behavior that follows users' directions, but also engages and entertains users with the novelty, life-like qualities, and performance properties of their improvisations. We present requirements for improvisational characters that differ from the usual requirements for conventional computer age...
