The Psychology of Music
On interpreting musical phenomena in terms of mental function
Introduction to Computer Music
A must-have introduction that bridges the gap between music and computing The rise in number of composer-programmers has given cause for an essential resource that addresses the gap between music and computing and looks at the many different software packages that deal with music technology. This up-to-date book fulfills that demand and deals with both the practical use of technology in music as well as the principles behind the discipline. Aimed at musicians exploring computers and technologists engaged with music, this unique guide merges the two worlds so that both musicians and computer scientists can benefit. Defines computer music and offers a solid introduction to representing music o...
Artificial Intelligence Research and Development
This book is a collection of 45 accepted papers originally submitted for the 12th International Conference of the Catalan Association for Artificial Intelligence (ACIA). It also includes a brief summary of two papers from invited speakers. The Catalan Association for Artificial Intelligence was founded in 1994 with the aim of fostering cooperation among researchers from the Catalan-speaking AI research community. Collaboration between ACIA members and the wider international AI community has also been wel-established now for many years. The papers in these proceedings reflect this collaboration and include contributions not only from the Catalan-speaking regions of Spain, but also from France and Italy, and from as far afield as Mexico and Australia. Of al the fields in computer science, AI is the one most intertwined with all sorts of disciplines dealt with in the human experience, often employing lessons learnt in one discipline to implement a task in another. The papers in this volume reflect the rich iversity in AI, covering areas such as logics, natural language, machine learning, computer vision, robotics and multi-agent systems.
Music Performance Encounters
Why do most musical performers and musical researchers continue to inhabit divergent epistemic spaces? To what extent is the act of musical performance coextensive with the act of doing musical research, and vice versa? At what point in the research process can a performative act transform into a scholarly one, and a scholarly act into a performative one? These, and other related questions, form the central focus of this book, with each chapter offering a fresh perspective on a particular topic in music performance studies: improvisational traditions, historical performance practices, analysis and performance, sports psychology, cross-cultural musical interactions, and institutional challeng...
Musical Signal Processing
Compiled by an international array of musical and technical specialists, this book deals with some of the most important topics in modern musical signal processing. Beginning with basic concepts, and leading to advanced applications, it covers such essential areas as sound synthesis (including detailed studies of physical modelling and granular synthesis) ,control signal synthesis, sound transformation (including convolution), analysis/resynthesis (phase vocodor, wavelets, analysis by chaotic functions), object-oriented and artificial intelligence representations, musical interfaces and the integration of signal processing techniques in concert performance.

Pattern in Music
This book presents analyses of pattern in music from different computational and mathematical perspectives. A central purpose of music analysis is to represent, discover, and evaluate repeated structures within single pieces or within larger corpora of related pieces. In the chapters of this book, music corpora are structured as monophonic melodies, polyphony, or chord sequences. Patterns are represented either extensionally as locations of pattern occurrences in the music, or intensionally as sequences of pitch or chord features, rhythmic profiles, geometric point sets, and logical expressions. The chapters cover both deductive analysis, where music is queried for occurrences of a known pat...
Understanding the Art of Sound Organization
The first work to propose a comprehensive musicological framework to study sound-based music, a rapidly developing body of work that includes electroacoustic art music, turntable composition, and acoustic and digital sound installations. The art of sound organization, also known as electroacoustic music, uses sounds not available to traditional music making, including prerecorded, synthesized, and processed sounds. The body of work of such sound-based music (which includes electroacoustic art music, turntable composition, computer games, and acoustic and digital sound installations) has developed more rapidly than its musicology. Understanding the Art of Sound Organization proposes the first...
