Mathematical Methods In Composing Melodies, Thomas Brown
Mathematical Methods In Composing Melodies, Thomas Brown
Undergraduate Theses and Capstone Projects
This thesis, “Mathematical Methods in Composing Melodies,” explores the different ways in which mathematics can be used to create music. Some research has been done in this field already. Richard F. Voss and John Clarke used fractals and different frequencies of noise to create music. The Greek composer Iannis Xenakis used Markovian Stochastic trees to create some of his compositions. Explored in this thesis are seven different methods to compose melodies. After compiling the different melodies, they were categorized by different musical periods based on the musical characteristics found in the melody. This thesis differs from other research that deals …

Frankenstein: Man Or Monster?, Leigh P. Mackintosh
Undergraduate Theses and Capstone Projects
Since its first publication in 1818, Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein has left a lasting impression upon the world speaking to a multitude of audiences including artists, scientists, philosophers, and society as a whole. Considering the impact of Frankenstein through its evolution as a cultural myth in various plays and films, this thesis will provide a way to gauge the relevance of Shelley’s story as an adaptation. Only by knowing what has been done in the past and how the materials have been used by other playwrights and screenwriters can one understand how to handle them as an original work. The …

Who Makes Electronic Music?: Vocalists, Composers, Gender And Electronic Music Technology, Hannah Bosma
Who Makes Electronic Music?: Vocalists, Composers, Gender And Electronic Music Technology, Hannah Bosma
SWITCH
An analysis on how electronic sound technology has altered the roles of the composer and the vocalist. By foregrounding timbre and making permanent the sound of the vocal performance, recorded sound and electronic music have the potential to impact the balance of power between the traditionally male composer and the female vocalist. The article refers to various singers and composers such as La Barbara, Diamanda Galas, and Laurie Anderson to demonstrate the potential impact of sound recordings to alter these gender dynamics. Despite this, the author forewarns against technological determinism and mentions countervailing forces which privilege the work of the …
Tones And Intervals Of Hindu Classical Music, Donald A. Lentz
Tones And Intervals Of Hindu Classical Music, Donald A. Lentz
University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)
ART IS ALL ENDURING and limitless, and defies positive, unvariable classification. No attempt is being made in this book to compare artistic, subjective or emotional factors. Only the objective elements, techniques and procedures of music that are tangible and definite are being compared and classified. Western music, having reached a plateau under the present harmonic system, is projecting into new channels for textural inspiration. Composers have exploited the present system, using existing intervals in every conceivable manner under existing tonal and atonal theories. Devices such as smaller intervals (example: tempered quarter tones), electronic combinations, aleatonic principles, etc. are being dealt …

A Critical Analysis And Study Of The Problems Of Intonation In The Band Ensemble, Harold H. Bartlett
A Critical Analysis And Study Of The Problems Of Intonation In The Band Ensemble, Harold H. Bartlett
University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this treatise is not so much to discover heretofore unknown facts through original research; however, certain research is planned to assist in deleting the obvious handicaps one might encounter from using faulty instruments or mouthpieces, but rather to assemble under one cover practical data that may be of value in improving intonation in the band ensemble. Various definitions of terms will be established, purposes determined, opinion and methods of teachers evaluated, conclusions reached, and highlights of other persons’ experiments that may bear upon the subject will be presented.
