Development of a Method of Writing Lyrics Using Twitter Tweets
In this paper, I propose the “tweet lyric writing method”, which is a method of writing lyrics using Twitter tweets. Recently, many original songs are posted on video-sharing websites and many users not only watch them but also compose music because of the technologies of digital audio workstations such as prominent synthesizers and sequencers. Despite the progress of digital music, for a sound creator, it is rather more difficult to write lyrics than to compose music. On the other hand, many people post text messages on social media about their ideas and feelings in daily life. I noticed that the text messages posted are similar in subject to lyrics and developed a method of writing lyrics using Twitter tweets. In this method, users review their Twitter tweets and analyze their situation and feelings when they posted them. Next, they redescribe them in detail using more concrete words. Finally, they refine the words to poetic description. I applied this method in my seminar on song composition. As a result, many students have acquired the ability to write lyrics to their original songs employing the tweet lyric writing method.8Vol.23 8P論文Paperdepartmental bulletin pape
A Study on the Relationship between the Preferred Face and the Facial Aspect Ratio
Focusing on the relationship between the preferred shape and the aspect ratio, we selected the face as an example of shape and examined the relationship between the preferred face and the facial aspect ratio, based on the hairstyle. We carried out this examination with about 1000 participants in Japan and the West respectively. To determine the aspect ratio of the face, we classified the hairstyle into three types: The hairstyle that revealed the forehead; the hairstyle that concealed the forehead with the front hair dangling; the hairstyle with the front hair divided. These three hairstyles are classified as the elongated face, the not elongated face, and the middle elongated face respectively.
As a result, we found that the middle elongated face is favored by about 40 percent of participants and is the most favored of the three hairstyles, statistically. The elongated face and the not elongated face were also each favored both by about 30 percent of participants. Comparing the results that show that a square rectangle is most favored statistically, we found that the preferred aspect ratio of shapes is different between rectangles and faces.
Conversely, in the West, we found that the elongated face is favored by more than 90 percent of participants; the results of which are similar to the results that show that a golden rectangle is relatively favored in a rectangle case.11Vol.23 11P論文Paperdepartmental bulletin pape
