A global aspect plays a big role in researching this topic as globalization and transnationalism reveal the complexity of politics, economics, and culture and its effects …
The Utility Of Sonification, Colin St. John
The Utility Of Sonification, Colin St. John
Capstone Projects and Master's Theses
Sonification is the process of translating data sets into sound or music for artistic, scientific, or practical purposes. As a tool, sonification can facilitate the interpretation and comprehension of information by perceiving it in a traditionally unusual manner - aurally, through expressions and variations in volume, pitch, timbre, and more. However, each of these factors present their own limitations and strengths, due to their nature as well as due to human perception, which must be considered when creating an audio display. Through sonification, the line between artist and scientist is often blurred, as this field attracts a wide interdisciplinary following …

And The Beat Goes On: The Story Of The Drum Machine, Ismael Medina
Capstone Projects and Master's Theses
The drum machine was created to accompany musicians and producers; it has the power to create basic and complex rhythmic patterns and helps musicians. In this paper, extensive research will be used to explain the history and origin of the drum machine. It will also require dissecting several sources such as Beat Box: A Drum Machine Obsession by Joe Mansfield and others. It will also help explain in detail the roles Roger Linn, Dave Rossum and Ikutaro Kakehashi played by revolutionizing the drum machine. The next section will explain how artist and producers who used the drum machine as musical …
The Benefits Of Music In Child Development, Dulce-Paola Ixtupe
The Benefits Of Music In Child Development, Dulce-Paola Ixtupe
Capstone Projects and Master's Theses
Music is a subject that does not limit children to simply having fun, although “fun” is an essential component when trying to engage children in learning activities. Music further enhances a series of transferable skills and can help children with their learning experience in other subjects. By being part of a fun activity such as music, children are able to acquire affective, cognitive, and evaluative skills, which will further reinforce a variety of areas of their development. When engaged in an activity where recognition and expression of feelings are required, they learn that having feelings is perfectly normal and that …
Soft Sound: A Guide To The Tools And Techniques Of Software Synthesis, Quinn Powell
Soft Sound: A Guide To The Tools And Techniques Of Software Synthesis, Quinn Powell
Capstone Projects and Master's Theses
“Soft Sound” is an examination of software synthesis, the act of using computer software to create audio signals from scratch. It begins with the basics of sound, a prerequisite for understanding any form of synthesis. Then, it delves into a quick history of analog and digital synthesizers before jumping into the heart of the paper: a look at the forms of synthesis that are commonly done in software rather than analog hardware. These forms include wavetable modulation, frequency modulation, and granular synthesis. Different environments for implementing such techniques will be discussed, ranging from user-friendly virtual synthesizers to low-level programming environments. …
A Comparative History And The Importance Of Chamber Music, Aaron M. Sacks
A Comparative History And The Importance Of Chamber Music, Aaron M. Sacks
Capstone Projects and Master's Theses
This capstone presentation focuses on the role of chamber music in both social and academic contexts. Using examples from the past five centuries and including local examples, parallels and divergences are drawn to points of most import. The spotlight is upon three areas: a) what the role of chamber music was in the past, compared to today; b) why it is an important genre, to both musicians, as well as non-musicians, and c) in what ways more exposure to the form can be built. Much of the focus is on composers and their influence, but the impact of and upon …
