Computer Music Meets Unconventional Computing: Towards Sound Synthesis with In Vitro Neuronal Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
We are interested in exploring ways in which unconventional modes of computation may provide new directions for future developments in Computer Music. Research into Unconventional Computing (Calude et al. 1998) is aimed at computational paradigms other than the standard von Neumann architecture, which have prevailed in computing since the 1940s. This paper presents an investigation into the feasibility of synthesizing sounds with hybrid wetware-silicon devices using in vitro neuronal networks.

متن کاملUnconventional Computing for Music: Sound Synthesis with Slime Mould
This paper reports on the recent outcomes from our research into Unconventional Computing for sound and music using slime mould of Physarum polycephalum. This slime mould is a huge single cell with thousands of nuclei, which behaves like a giant amoeba. During its foraging behaviour it produces electrical activity corresponding to different physiological states. We developed a method to render ...
متن کاملA new cloud computing architecture for music composition
This paper presents an original cloud computing architecture for music composition. In this model, music applications are built by making several computer music services work together. Component services are provided by a dedicated layer in the cloud architecture called computer music as a Service (CMaaS). The specialized music services can be integrated into different applications at the same ...

متن کاملTowards Unconventional Computing through Simulated Evolution: Learning Classifier System Control of Non-Linear Media
We propose that the behaviour of non-linear media can be controlled automatically through evolutionary learning. By extension, forms of unconventional computing, i.e., massively parallel nonlinear computers, can be realised by such an approach. In this initial study a light-sensitive sub-excitable Belousov-Zhabotinski reaction in which a checkerboard image comprising of varying light intensity ...
