Wood has been approved for the Department of Computer Science School of Engineering and Applied Science University of Colorado Colorado Springs Dr. Sudhanshu K.

(Ph.D., Engineering) Connecting the Perception of Emotion to Music Signals Dissertation directed by Dr. Sudhanshu K. Semwal Determining the emotional impact of a particular musical excerpt can be challenging when dealing with human perceptions. It is not possible to ensure that each person will have a comparable experience. In addition, cultural differences may influence musical preference. This dissertation studies the linear relationship between signal processing data ex- tracted from a musical excerpt and user perceived emotion data in order to classify the musical excerpt by the emotion it evokes. When using only perceived emotion ratings that fell within one standard deviation of the mean rating, we were able to identify a relationship between music signal data and perceived emotion within a single genre using a weighing algorithm generated using the Weka linear regression classifier. Once a relationship was identified, the same process was run on the marching band music in order to determine if the orchestral signal weightings would correctly predict the ground truth emotion data for the band music. It became apparent that neither the or- chestral nor the band signal weightings would correctly identify the other genre’s ground truth emotion. A combined signal weighing for the orchestra and band music was more suc- cessful but there was insufficient data to conclusively say whether or not a single weighing algorithm would be able to accurately predict perceived emotions in more than one genre. In comparing our results to that of Eerola, et al. [27], it is apparent that expanding the emotional content of the music studied significantly reduced the correlation coefficients to less than 40% for the eight emotion sliders and less than 50% for the energy level slider. This applied to both the Linear Regression and the Partial Least Squares classification algorithms. We believe that this exposes a flaw in the current methods being employed to classify music. By limiting the music to specific emotions, it creates an artificially linear v input dataset causing the linear based algorithms to appear to be more effective than they actually are. An important outcome of this research is the creation of a music signal database which includes the ground truth data collected for the music excerpts. DEDICATION This dissertation is dedicated to my husband, Jeff and daughters, Rachel and Michelle. Their love and support made my success possible. I would also like to dedicate this dissertation to the memory of Dr. Margaret Gram, who encouraged me to go to college, major in math (even though I was a girl) and, most of all, believe in myself. vii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I extend my heartfelt appreciation to my advisor and committee chair, Dr. Sudhanshu K. Semwal for his unwavering support and assistance in my journey toward my Ph.D. His guidance and patience made my success possible. I am also very grateful for the time that my committee members, Dr. Albert Glock, Dr. Gregory Plett, Dr. Kristen Walcott-Justice and Dr. Jonathan Ventura spent, speaking with me and providing constructive criticism on my research. I am especially grateful for the input I received from Dr. Jonathan Ventura, who’s insight into prior research, enabled me to significantly improve my dissertation. I am indebted to the members of the Graphic, Media and Integration Consortium members, Khalid Al Harbi, Hans Cox, Matthew Higgins, Irving Rynning, Bonnie Snyder and Dr. Dana Wortman for the feedback they provided on the “trial run” of both my topic and my dissertation presentations. Their helpful criticisms enable me to, um, get it right.

European sound designer Rob Papen has assembled over 600 of his best samples and coupled them with the Proteus 2000’s ultra-powerful synth engine to create a sound set like you’ve never heard before! Proteus’ 12 knob controllers let you tweak sounds to your heart’s content. Presets can morph into completely new sounds and textures at the touch of your fingers. Explore the presets by pressing the Audition button! The Techno Synth Construction Yard includes 136 spankin’ new RIFFs which you can use as backing tracks in your music. Note about the Drumsets Almost all drum sets use Layer 1 for the Bass Drums, Layer 2 for the Snares, Layer 3 for the rest, Layer 4 for only the hi-hats. This means also that the open hi-hat and closed hi-hat work together like real drums! This layering is also useful when using separate outputs or adding FX In the basic setting of the presets the knob control- lers for FX-A and B work only on Layer 2 (snares) and Layer 3 (rest of percussion and drums). Layer 1 and Layer 4 will stay dry for the FX-A knob (K). The non-GM sets have extra Bass and Snare Drums in each kit.

His research is about the history and use of digital technologies in popular music and his book, Digital Sampling, is due to be published by Routledge. Other research interests include copyright, mash-ups, and the music industries. His academic writing has been published in Popular Music, Popular Music & Society, IASPM@Journal, Journal on the Art of Record Production, and Reseaux. [email protected] Brockhaus, Immanuel. Cult Sounds. http://www.cult-sounds.com Writing about popular music has often caused problems for scholars attempting to make sense of its sounds. Sociologists have been accused of failing to take them seriously by focusing on the contexts of production, distribution, and consumption and ignoring the ‘text’. Treating music as a text, though, has created its own issues as musicologists use the tools of musical analysis to look at lyrics and notes, things that are easy to write down or notate. Since the turn of the century, there have been a number of developments that have impacted on how scholars approach the sounds of popular music: the Art of Record Production (ARP) conference, which started in 2005, brought together those researching music within the academy, sound engineers starting PhDs, and record producers with books to promote. Moreover, the growth of Sound Studies as an interdisciplinary field has led to an increased focus on the production of sound itself, often outwith the contexts of music making and popular music.

  • Aragón and Valencia
    ARAGÓN AND VALÈNCIA Aragón and València “The jota is at its best with the scent of rosemary and fresh-plowed earth,” says the opening song on this CD. An infectious collection of danced and sung jotas, archaic threshing songs, May courting songs, struck zither tunes, raucous shawms and lyrical strings, travelling down from the mountains of Aragón to the fertile coast of València. The Spanish Recordings Alan Lomax made these historic recordings in 1952 while traveling for months through Spanish villages, under formidable physical and political circumstances, during the Franco regime. Covering the breadth of Spain, these songs and dance melodies constitute a portrait of rural Spain’s richly varied musical life, dispelling the common stereotypes of Spanish folk music. The Alan Lomax Collection The Alan Lomax Collection gathers together the American, European, and Caribbean field recordings, world music compilations, and ballad operas of writer, folklorist, and ethnomusicologist Alan Lomax. Recorded in 1952 by Alan Lomax. Introductions and notes by Luis Bajén García and Mario Gros Herrero (Aragón), Archivo de Tradición Oral de Aragón (ATOA); and Josemi Sánchez Velasco (València), Consellería de Cultura, Educació i Ciència, Generalitat de València.

  • Nation Branding, National Identity and the Eurovision Song Contest in Estonia Politics and Society in the Baltic Sea Region 2
    This book provides a unique and intriguing insight into current debates concerning the relationship between nation and state Jordan Paul as well as the political management of international image in today’s Europe through an examination of debates on nation branding and the Eurovision Song Contest. Europe is a con- tested construct and its boundaries are subject to redefinition. This work aims to advance critical thinking about contempo- rary nation branding and its relationship to, and influence on, Paul Jordan nation building. In particular it focusses on key identity debates The Modern Tale Fairy that the Eurovision Song Contest engendered in Estonia in the run-up to EU accession. The Eurovision Song Contest is an event which is often dismissed as musically and culturally The Modern Fairy Tale: inferior. However, this work demonstrates that it has the capac- ity to shed light on key identity debates and illuminate wider Nation Branding, National Identity socio-political issues. Using a series of in-depth interviews with and the Eurovision Song Contest political elites, media professionals and opinion leaders, this book is a valuable contribution to the growing field of research in Estonia on nation branding and the Eurovision Song Contest. Paul Jordan obtained his PhD from the University of Glasgow in 2011. His research interests include nation building and nation branding of post-communist states, national identity and nationalist politics. He is also a regular media commenta- tor on the Eurovision Song Contest.

  • Free Movement and Recognition of Qualifications in the European Union: the Case of Music Professionals
    Free movement and recognition of qualifications in the European Union: the case of music professionals MA European Law and Policy Janneke C. Vrijland October 2005 School of Social, Historical and Literary Studies Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Portsmouth and HEBO, Haagse Hogeschool Free movement and recognition of qualifications in the EU: the case of music professionals 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This study is intended to provide an overview of legislation and issues at stake regarding the free movement of music professionals within the European Union, with an emphasis on the particular areas of regulated professions and diploma recognition. Hopefully this study will be of use to music professionals, music educators, policy makers and others active in the music sector. It is written from the viewpoint of music professionals who wish to receive clear and comprehensible information on their legal position when performing, studying or teaching abroad within the EU. Many interesting and related themes have been left out of this study, due to constraints in time and size, but hopefully these will be explored by others in future. My interest in this particular subject stems from my work for the ‘Association Européenne des Conservatoires, Académies de Musique et Musikhochschulen’ (AEC), for which I have been involved in several projects relevant to the mobility of music students and professionals. Through these projects it came to my notion that there was a definite need for one document or source compiling all relevant legislation, issues at stake combined with information per country and analyses. Special thanks goes to Professor Verwey for his academic advice and supervision and to my family and friends for their continuous support.
