Abstract Behaviors for Structured Music Programming
نویسنده
چکیده
Music Behaviors are introduced as a way to conceptually organize computation for music generation. In this abstraction, music is organized hierarchically by combining substructures either in sequence or parallel. While such structures are not new to either computer music or computer science, an efficient and simple realtime implementation that does not require threads or translation to data structures is offered, making this abstraction more appropriate in a variety of languages and systems where efficiency is a concern or where existing support is lacking.

The effect of background stimulative music on behavior in Alzheimer's patients.
Previous studies have demonstrated the benefits of music therapy in Alzheimer's patients, focusing either on improvement of healthy cognitive and social skills, or reduction of agitation symptoms. The present study examined the effect of background music on both positive and negative behaviors, during a time in which patients were not occupied with any structured activity. Twenty eight particip...
متن کاملEvaluation of a Music Intervention on Well-being and Behavior of People with Dementia Using Dementia Care Mapping
Introduction: Dementia Care Mapping (DCM) was originally developed as an observation tool to examine person-centered care in long-term care facilities and to evaluate the quality of life and well-being of people with dementia (PwD). However, the effects of a music intervention using this tool have not been investigated so far. This leads to the following research question: How does a music inte...

Objective: In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of Music Therapy (MT) along with Play Therapy (PT) on increasing appropriate Social Behaviors (SBs) and decreasing inappropriate stereotyped behaviors of children with autism. Methods: This is an experimental study, and we used pre-test and post-test control group design to analyze the data. The study sample included 30 children with...
متن کاملAn Abstract Approach to Musicl
The notion of formalized music implies that a musical composition can be described in mathematical terms. In this article we explore some formal aspects of music and propose a framework for an abstract approach. In his fundamental treatise on Formalized Music [1], Iannis Xenakis shows how a musical composition can be structured on the basis of mathematical ideas. His sieves are essentially impl...
متن کاملIMUSIC: Programming Non-Music Applications with Music
This paper discusses the implementation of a tone-based programming/scripting language called MUSIC (the name is an acronym for Music-Utilizing Script Input Code). In a MUSIC program, input and output consists entirely of musical tones or rhythms. MUSIC is not focused on musicprogramming per se, but on general programming. It can be used for teaching the basics of script-based programming, comp...
