Surfing with sound: an ethnography of the art of no-input mixing (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chamberlain, A. (2018, September). Surfing with sound: an ethnography of the art of no-input mixing. Presented at Audio Mostly 2018: a conference on interaction with sound

The idea of No-Input Mixing may appear at first difficult to understand, after all there is no input, yet artists, performers and sound designers have used a variety of approaches using such feedback systems to create music. This paper uses ethnograp... Read More about Surfing with sound: an ethnography of the art of no-input mixing.

The design of future music technologies: ‘sounding out’ AI, immersive experiences & brain controlled interfaces (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chamberlain, A., Bødker, M., Kallionpää, M., Ramchurn, R., De Roure, D., Benford, S., Dix, A., & Gasselseder, H.-P. (2018, September). The design of future music technologies: ‘sounding out’ AI, immersive experiences & brain controlled interfaces. Presented at Audio Mostly 2018: a conference on interaction with sound

This paper outlines some of the issues that we will be discussing in the workshop “The Design of Future Music Technologies: ‘Sounding Out’ AI, Immersive Experiences & Brain Controlled Interfaces.” Musical creation, performance and consumption is at a...

Lovelace's Legacy: Creative Algorithmic Interventions for Live Performance (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
De Roure, D., Willcox, P., & Chamberlain, A. (2018, September). Lovelace's Legacy: Creative Algorithmic Interventions for Live Performance. Presented at 13th International Conference on Augmented and Participatory Sound and Music Experiences. Audio Mostly 2018, Wrexham United Kingdom

We describe a series of informal exercises in which we have put
algorithms in the hands of human performers in order to encourage
a human creative response to mathematical and algorithmic input.
These ‘interventions’ include a web-based app, exper... Read More about Lovelace's Legacy: Creative Algorithmic Interventions for Live Performance.

An AI-Based Design Framework to Support Musicians' Practices (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Martinez-Avila, J., Hazzard, A., Chamberlain, A., Greenhalgh, C., & Benford, S. (2018, September). An AI-Based Design Framework to Support Musicians' Practices. Presented at AM'18: Sound in Immersion and Emotion, Wrexham United Kingdom

The practice of working musicians extends beyond the act of performing musical works at a concert. Rather, a significant degree of individual and collaborative preparation is necessitated prior to the moment of presentation to an audience. Increasing...
