Creating a Context for Musical Innovation: A NIME Curriculum
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents the approaches and expectations of a recently launched course at New York University (NYU) in the design and development of musical controllers. The framework for the course, which is also entitled “New Interfaces for Musical Expression,” is largely based on the proceedings of the first NIME workshop held in Seattle, WA in April 2001.

This document describes the implementation of the SonicJumper gestural controller bodysuit in a compositional context. It is a tool for generating musical materials, which are then used to compose a piece of music. The emphasis is on integration of gestural controllers at the earliest stage of the compositional process, rather than at the end. That is to say, the following discussion centers on...
متن کاملImprovised duet interaction: learning improvisation techniques for automatic accompaniment
The interaction between music improvisers is studied in the context of piano duets, where one improviser performs a melody expressively with embellishment, and the other plays an accompaniment with great freedom. We created an automated accompaniment player that learns to play from example performances. Accompaniments are constructed by selecting and concatenating one-measure score units from a...
متن کاملIdiomatic composition practices for new musical instruments: context, background and current applications
One of the reasons of why some musical instruments more successfully continue their evolution and actively take part in the history of music is partially attributed to the existing compositions made specifically for them, pieces that remain and are still played over a long period of time. This is something we know, performing these compositions keeps the characteristics of the instruments alive...
متن کاملMachine Learning of Musical Gestures
We present an overview of machine learning (ML) techniques and their application in interactive music and new digital instrument design. We first provide the non-specialist reader an introduction to two ML tasks, classification and regression, that are particularly relevant for gestural interaction. We then present a review of the literature in current NIME research that uses ML in musical gest...
