AI as mediator between composers, sound designers, and creative media producers

Abstract

Musical professionals who produce material for non-musical stakeholders often face communication challenges in the early ideation stage. Expressing musical ideas can be difficult, especially when domain-specific vocabulary is lacking. This position paper proposes the use of artificial intelligence to facilitate communication between stakeholders and accelerate the consensus-building process. Rather than fully or partially automating the creative process, the aim is to give more time for creativity by reducing time spent on defining the expected outcome. To demonstrate this point, the paper discusses two application scenarios for interactive music systems that are based on the authors' research into gesture-to-sound mapping.
