Abstract Details

2000, M.M., University of Cincinnati, College-Conservatory of Music : Theory.
My Masters Thesis is an electro-acoustic composition whose main focus is interaction between live performer and computer. Although this kind of interaction is still in its infancy primarily due to limitations of artificial intelligence, I have devised ways of circumventing this deterring issue through implementation of controlled and more focused response by the computer. My primary interest was in utilizing the RTcmix music programming language due to fact it has an ability to harness the power of sound processing filters in real-time, while using the microphone as a sound input device. Another focus of the work was to expand capabilities of this language by building a custom front-end application that would ease the interaction between the composer-imposed computer's behavior and a performer. I have also paid a great deal of attention to making the piece resistant to a certain amount of deviation from the original musical material by suggesting and implementing improvisatory passages. Each movement of the work focuses on a particular technique, sound filter, and/or a particular extended technique of playing guitar.
