Two Approaches for Interaction Management in Timbre-Aware Improvisation Systems

نویسنده

  • William Hsu
چکیده

This paper describes two recent improvisation systems that incorporate timbre as an integral element in performance characterization and decision-making. The first London system uses high-level performance descriptors, adapted from recent work in mood detection in music, to coordinate low-level performance events. It was used in performances at LAM 2006 and NIME 2007. After careful evaluation of the results, we addressed the perceived shortcomings in the design of the ARHS system, which manages performance statistics hierarchically; this improved short-term responsiveness, as well as the ability to monitor and adapt to long-term performance variations.

An interactive software system that improvises in such a context should be able to analyze and respond to gestures with rich timbral information. We have been working on a system that improvises with British saxophonist John Butcher, whose complex vocabulary incorporates extended saxophone playing techniques, ampl...

Improvisation as Model for Real-Time Decision Making

Abstract This work explores the concept of improvisation as a framework for understanding real-time dynamic decision making (RTDDM) and systems support for it. The contexts for RTDDM and those in which agents improvise are remarkably similar according to several parameters. The foundations of improvisation are built on management theory, practice, and education. The work provides a rich definit...
