  • Uma Perspectiva Musicológica Sobre a Formação Da Categoria Ciberpunk Na Música Para Audiovisuais – Entre 1982 E 2017
    Uma perspectiva musicológica sobre a formação da categoria ciberpunk na música para audiovisuais – entre 1982 e 2017 André Filipe Cecília Malhado Dissertação de Mestrado em Ciências Musicais Área de especialização em Musicologia Histórica Setembro de 2019 I Dissertação apresentada para cumprimento dos requisitos necessários à obtenção do grau de Mestre em Ciências Musicais – Área de especialização em Musicologia Histórica, realizada sob a orientação científica da Professora Doutora Paula Gomes Ribeiro. II Às duas mulheres da minha vida que permanecem no ciberespaço do meu pensamento: Sara e Maria de Lourdes E aos dois homens da minha vida com quem conecto no meu quotidiano: Joaquim e Ricardo III Agradecimentos Mesmo tratando-se de um estudo de musicologia histórica, é preciso destacar que o meu objecto, problemática, e uma componente muito substancial do método foram direccionados para a sociologia. Por essa razão, o tema desta dissertação só foi possível porque o fenómeno social da música ciberpunk resulta do esforço colectivo dos participantes dentro da cultura, e é para eles que direciono o meu primeiro grande agradecimento. Sinto-me grato a todos os fãs do ciberpunk por manterem viva esta cultura, e por construírem à qual também pertenço, e espero, enquanto aca-fã, ter sido capaz de fazer jus à sua importância e aos discursos dos seus intervenientes. Um enorme “obrigado” à Professora Paula Gomes Ribeiro pela sua orientação, e por me ter fornecido perspectivas, ideias, conselhos, contrapontos teóricos, ajuda na resolução de contradições, e pelos seus olhos de revisora-falcão que não deixam escapar nada! Como é evidente, o seu contributo ultrapassa em muito os meandros desta investigação, pois não posso esquecer tudo aquilo que me ensinou desde o primeiro ano da Licenciatura.

  • The Functions of Music in Interactive Media
    The Functions of Music in Interactive Media Axel Berndt and Knut Hartmann Department of Simulation and Graphics Otto-von-Guericke University of Magdeburg, Germany [email protected] University of Applied Science Flensburg, Germany [email protected] Abstract. The combination of music with interactive media enables new forms of expression, can expand the bandwidth of information flow by disencumbering and complementing the visual channel, and support the user/player in controlling and managing complex structures (e.g., in strategy games). Its associative power can be used to influence playing behaviour and decision processes. This, amongst others, educationally interesting potential lies idle! In this media theoretical and critical elaboration we intend to close the gap between music in static linear and non-linear interactive media. We will give a brief overview on media music perception, detail its historical development with regard to interactive media, elaborate and exemplify its narrative functions in order to widen the scope of the field where music meets interactivity. Key words: Interactive Media Music, Perception, History, Narration 1 Introduction Amongst all the arts, being interweaved by their cooperative coexistence in mul- timedia, music is one of the oldest and most frequently underestimated. In com- bination with image and sound it leads a nebulous shadowy existence, seemingly aimless or at least difficult to explain by terms like background music. Its tremen- dous importance only becomes apparent when taking it away, i.e., muting the music, and experiencing the disillusioning lack of this unconscious something [1]. What are the reasons for this difficulty of describing its value and even neces- sity in modern media? In Section 2 we will briefly introduce this special case of human perception of music that is performed in combination with other media.
