Music generation using cellular models

Music is an art form that is created by people who draw inspiration from a variety of sources. However, the basis of music is an organization of sound frequencies, timed in a certain manner. Using the basic principles of music, it is possible to develop a mechanism for the automatic generation of music. The goal of this research project is to explore the mapping of cellular models into musical ...

Sketching music: making music by exploring art

Music is complicated, so we explored how we can make it easier for inexperienced people to engage with it, and improve their understanding of it. In a series of exploratory studies, we asked participants to use a musical tabletop interface to compose music in relation to different forms of art, such as paintings and narrations. We found that (i) discussing extra-musical material in terms of mus...

Predictive models for music

Modeling long-term dependencies in time series has proved very difficult to achieve with traditional machine learning methods. This problem occurs when considering music data. In this paper, we introduce generative models for melodies. We decompose melodic modeling into two subtasks. We first propose a rhythm model based on the distributions of distances between subsequences. Then, we define a ...
