  • The Electric Guitar 2.0
    The Electric Guitar 2.0 The Electric Guitar 2.0 redesign and finite element method analysis Content: Redesign & FEM analysis Student: Wilco Prinsen Course: s0066818 Evolutionary Product Development Teaching Staff: Date: Robert Wendrich Wednesday, April 23, 2008. Arthur Eger Summary 50 years ago, the electric guitar reached both the segmentation and individualization phase. Cur- rently, the next step should be the awareness phase. However, after closer study, it was concluded some “aware” products were not successful. Therefore, the electric guitar will remain in the segmentation and individualization phase in the near future. In the seg- mentation phase there are still lots of opportunities due to new technologies. Adding wireless technologies to the already existing digital (modeling) guitar is an opportunity. For the new concept it was concluded that the electric guitar should visualize its digital revolution with sophisti- cated product design to differentiate from the “fifties classic”-design of the electric guitar. 4 redesign & finite element method analysis Contents 1.

Newcastle University, December 2007 NEWCASTLE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY ---------------------------- 206 53423 0 ---------------------------- ABSTRACT The contemporaryacoustic guitar has developed from its origins in the 'Spanish' guitar to become a global instrument and the musical voice of a wide range of styles.

  • Phd Thesis, and These Barriers Will Be Revisited Later in This Chapter
    INSTRUMENTSANDACCESS:THEROLEOF INSTRUMENTSINMUSICANDDISABILITY jacob harrison INSTRUMENTSANDACCESS:THEROLEOFINSTRUMENTS INMUSICANDDISABILITY jacob harrison Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of London Degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science Queen Mary University of London supervisors: Dr Andrew McPherson April 2020 Jacob Harrison: Instruments and Access: the Role of Instruments in Music and Disability © April 2020 ABSTRACT In the past several decades, society’s understanding of disability has progressed from an individualised model based on functional limitations, to the identification of disabling barriers in society which are imposed upon people living with phys- ical, cognitive and/or sensory impairments. Alongside this, there is increased in- terest in new creative technologies which are capable of addressing these barriers. In this thesis, I explore the development of Accessible Digital Musical Instruments (ADMIs) in terms of their ability to address the technical and social barriers that prevent access to music-making. I begin with a review of relevant literature from the fields of Disability Stud- ies and Digital Musical Instrument (DMI) design. This is followed by interviews with two disabled musicians, who discuss how their approach to music perfor- mance and instrumentation relates to their disability identity. I then report three performer studies with purpose built DMIs. The first study explores adapting the bass guitar for one-handed playing, using a prototype mechanical adaptation. The second study continues the theme of preserving the role of the guitar, but asks questions around the role of interaction modality and global form, and how they relate to an instrument’s identity. The final study is an ethnographic account of a long-term situated research project with a community of learning-disabled mu- sicians, in which we observe how bespoke guitar-like ADMIs are used alongside unadapted instruments.

    MARCO PEREIRA: BRAZILIAN GUITAR VIRTUOSO By BRENT LEE SWANSON A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF MUSIC UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2004 Copyright 2004 by Brent Lee Swanson To my parents, Craig and Charlene. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would first and foremost like to thank God for the spiritual guidance needed to complete this work. I thank the School of Music and Dr. Larry Crook for introducing me to Brazilian music, helping me get an assistantship, mentoring me for over 8 years. More importantly, for having the patience to deal with the various personal idiosyncrasies that I am sure caused him grief over the years. I thank Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) and the Center for Latin American Studies for the opportunity to learn Portuguese in Rio de Janeiro (especially Amanda Wolfe). I thank Dr. Welson Tremura for introducing me to the Brazilian guitar, for mentoring me in all of my various studies, for yelling at me in rehearsals, for being a friend when I needed him, for letting me stay at his great house in São Jose do Rio Preto, and for all of the wonderful opportunities to play Brazilian music. I thank Dr. Charles Perrone for his love of Brazilian popular music (and well, for being Charles). I thank Jeffrey “Lightning” Ladenheim for introducing me to jazz, for calling me Sheehan, for yelling at me in rehearsals, and for being a friend through all my troubles; for all the opportunities he has given me.
