4. 17. Orchestrating timbre – Unfolding processes of timbre and memory in improvisational piano performance

   Author : Magdalena Mayas; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; extended timbre; improvisation; composition; inside piano; prepared piano; listening; timbral memory; spatialization; gesture; choreography; musical perception; embodied musical performance; artistic research;

   Abstract : This doctoral thesis presents how the orchestration of timbre is investigated from a performer’s perspective as means to “unfold” improvisational processes. It is grounded in my practice as a pianist in the realm of improvised music, in which I often use preparations and objects as extensions of the instrument. READ MORE

5. 18. Reactive Objects and Functional Programming

   Author : Johan Nordlander; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : The construction of robust distributed and interactive software is still a challenging task, despite the recent popularity-increase for languages that take advanced programming concepts into the mainstream. Several problematic areas can be identified: most languages require the reactivity of a system to be manually upheld by careful avoidance of blocking operations; mathematical values often need to be encoded in terms of stateful objects or vice versa; concurrency is particularly tricky in conjunction with encapsulated software components; and static type safety is often compromised because of the lack of simultaneous support for both subtyping and polymorphism.

   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; Psykologi; Psychology; Psykologi;

   Abstract : Emotional events are better remembered than neutral events. But what are the mechanisms behind this memory enhancing effect? It seems that they depend on the arousal level at the moment we experience the event to be remembered. READ MORE

7. 20. Using Virtual Reality for Participatory Design and Brain Injury Rehabilitation

   Author : Roy Davies; Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; pollution control; Environmental technology; Data- och systemvetenskap; computer technology; Systems engineering; Case Studies; Brain Injury Rehabilitation; Participatory Design; Virtual Reality; Usability; Applications; Miljöteknik; kontroll av utsläpp; Physical medicine; kinesitherapy; revalidation; rehabilitation; Rehabilitering medicinsk och social ;

   Abstract : In this thesis, the usability of Virtual Reality (VR) has been investigated and developed within two applications: participatory design of workplaces and brain injury rehabilitation. In the first application, VR is used in combination with full scale modelling, drama and democratic meetings in an Envisionment Workshop. READ MORE
