Codings for rhythm generation
In this work, we present a brief review of strategies to code rhythms and point to their possibilities and limitations in a unified way. We start by giving an overview of the representation (coding) of rhythms and their possible uses. Then we present different methods to analyse and generate rhythm patterns, which can be easily read by humans, through a simple algorithm. We also aim to provide a general evaluation of their pros and cons regarding…
A Mathematical, Graphical and Visual Approach to Granular Synthesis Composition
We show a method for Granular Synthesis Composition based on a mathematical modeling for the musical gesture. Each gesture is drawn as a curve generated from a particular mathematical model (or function) and coded as a MATLAB script. The gestures can be deterministic through defining mathematical time functions, hand free drawn, or even randomly generated. This parametric information of gestures is interpreted through OSC messages by a granular s…
An Analysis of the 4th Movement of György Ligeti’s Musica Ricercata based on Information Theory and Number Partitioning
Neste artigo, apresentamos uma análise matematicamente orientada do 4o Movimento da Musica Ricercata de György Ligeti (MR4). A análise das alturas é baseada na Teoria da Informação e a do ritmo na Teoria das Partições de números inteiros. Após uma breve revisão histórica de Musica Ricercata e sua estrutura, fazemos uma análise da distribuição das alturas ao longo da partitura completa do MR4, bem como da mão esquerda e direita separadamente, atra…
Light-speed Constancy Versus Light-speed Invariance in the Derivation of Relativistic Kinematics
It is still perhaps not widely appreciated that in 1905 Einstein used his postulate concerning the ‘constancy’ of the light-speed in the ‘resting’ frame, in conjunction with the principle of relativity, to derive numerical light-speed invariance. Now a ‘weak’ version of the relativity principle (or, alternatively, appeal to the Michelson—Morley experiment) leads from Einstein's light postulate to a condition that we call universal light-speed con…
