  • Waves of Refraction for Guitar and Tape
    Waves of Refraction for guitar and tape by Jon Christopher Nelson © 1992 Waves of Refraction (1992) for guitar and tape creates aural illusions which are analogous to the visual illusions of light waves refracted through water. Just as an object submerged in water appears slightly warped and unstable, the guitar refracted by the computer-generated tape sounds altered and mutable. At the beginning of the composition, the tape accurately replicates the guitar sounds. However, the tape quickly undergoes a metamorphosis, becoming more unusual and exploratory as the composition unfolds. The guitar also presents material that changes from nervous and disjunct figuration to more lyric lines. Waves of Refraction was commissioned by Carlos Molina, to whom the composition is dedicated. The computer-generated tape was produced in the Florida International University Electronic Music Studio. Notes for the performer: Chromatic alterations apply throughout the measure. The guitar part may be played with a certain amount of liberty. The fermatas and pauses are included to provide the performer with moments to wait for the tape cues (if waiting is necessary). In addition to the exceedingly fast finale and the percussive guitar punctuations throughout the score, there are five different musical styles juxtaposed in this work. These playing styles are marked with rehearsal markings A, B, C, D, and E. Although specific rhythms have been notated within the tempi provided in the score, it may be easier to simply have a rough idea of tempo for each of these styles. The music within the A sections should be fast and the rhythms should be played as accurately as possible.

    Efficient Optical Music Recognition Validation using MIDI Sequence Data by Janelle C.

All rights reserved. Author................................................................ Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science May 12, 2020 Certified by. Michael Scott Cuthbert Associate Professor Thesis Supervisor Accepted by . Katrina LaCurts Chair, Master of Engineering Thesis Committee ii Efficient Optical Music Recognition Validation using MIDI Sequence Data by Janelle C. Sands Submitted to the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science on May 12, 2020, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Engineering in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Abstract Despite advances in optical music recognition (OMR), resultant scores are rarely error-free. The power of these OMR systems to automatically generate searchable and editable digital representations of physical sheet music is lost in the tedious manual effort required to pinpoint and correct these errors post-OMR, or evento just confirm no errors exist. To streamline post-OMR error correction, I developeda corrector to automatically identify discrepancies between resultant OMR scores and corresponding Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) scores and then either automatically fix errors, or in ambiguous cases, notify the user to manually fix errors. This tool will be open source, so anyone can contribute to further improving the accuracy of OMR tools and expanding the amount of trusted digitized music. Thesis Supervisor: Michael Scott Cuthbert Title: Associate Professor iii iv Acknowledgments Thank you to my advisor, Professor Cuthbert, for sharing your enthusiasm, expertise, and encouragement throughout this project.
