  1. 1. The acoustics and performance of DJ scratching, Analysis and modelling

    Author : Kjetil Falkenberg Hansen; Roberto Bresin; Rolf Inge Godöy; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Acoustics; Akustik; Other veterinary medicine; Övrig veterinärmedicin; scratching;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the analysis and modeling of scratching, in other words, the DJ (disk jockey) practice of using the turntable as a musical instrument. There has been experimental use of turntables as musical instruments since their invention, but the use is now mainly ascribed to the musical genre hip-hop and the playing style known as scratching.

  2. 2. Interactive computer-aided expressive music performance : Analysis, control, modification and synthesis

    Author : Marco Fabiani; Anders Friberg; Roberto Bresin; Petri Toiviainen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Acoustics; Akustik;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the design and implementation process of two applications (PerMORFer and MoodifierLive) for the interactive manipulation of music performance. Such applications aim at closing the gap between the musicians, who play the music, and the listeners, who passively listen to it. READ MORE

  3. 3. Interactive sonification of motion : Design, implementation and control of expressive auditory feedback with mobile devices

    Author : Gaël Dubus; Roberto Bresin; Paul Vickers; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Speech and Music Communication; Tal- och musikkommunikation;

    Abstract : Sound and motion are intrinsically related, by their physical nature and through the link between auditory perception and motor control. If sound provides information about the characteristics of a movement, a movement can also be influenced or triggered by a sound pattern. READ MORE

    Abstract : Diagnostic and evaluative methods used in voice care are mostly designedfor the speaking voice, and are not necessarily directly applicable to thesinging voice. This thesis investigated the possibilities of fine tuning, improvingand quantifying the voice status assessment of the singer, focusingespecially on the Western operatic female voice. READ MORE
