COSMOS: Computational Shaping and Modeling of Musical Structures
Music performance is considered by many to be one of the most breath taking feats of human intelligence. That music performance is a creative act is no longer a disputed fact, but the very nature of this creative work remains illusive. Taking the view that the creative work of performance is the making and shaping of music structures, and that this creative thinking is a form of problem solving, COSMOS proposes an integrated programme of research to transform our understanding of the human experience of performed music, which is almost all the music that we hear, and the creativity of music performance, which addresses how that music is made. The research themes are as follows: i) to find…
