Motivated Music: Automatic Soundtrack Generation for Film
No full textAutomatic music composition is a fast-moving field which, from roots in serialism, has developed techniques spanning subjects as diverse as biology, chaos theory and linguistic grammars. These algorithms have been applied to specific aspects of music creation, as well as live performances. However, these traditional approaches to generation are dedicated to the creation of music which is independent from any other driving medium, whereas human-composed music is most often written with a purpose or situation in mind. Furthermore, the process of composition is naturally hierarchical, whereas the use of a single algorithm renders it a monolithic task. In order to address these issues, a model should be able to encapsulate a sense of composer motivation whilst not relying on a single algorithm for the composition process. As such, this work describes a new framework with the ability to provide a means to generate music from film in a media-driven, distributed, manner. This includes the initial annotation of the media using our new OntoMedia ontology; the mapping of annotated information into parameters suitable for compositional algorithms; the design and implementation of an agent framework suitable for the distribution of multiple composing algorithms; and finally the creation of agents capable of handling the composition of musical elements such as rhythm and melody. In addition, a case study is included which demonstrates the stages of the composition process from media annotation to automatic music generation
Motion and mobility in the realist novels of Philip K Dick
No full textThis essay explores the ways that ideas of motion and mobility support readings of Philip K Dick's early novels that take full account of the changing geographical context. They are set during a period of rapid suburban expansion, the building of the interstate and the spread of automobility through car ownership, and their characters frequently exist in a state between continuity through conformity and the potential for change. The open ended forms of the novels reflect a world around Dick that was still under construction, and where alternative realities can be glimpsed between incomplete materialities
