In this work, we introduce Mozualization, a music generation and editing tool that creates multi-style embedded music by integrating diverse inputs, such as keywords, images, and sound clips (e.g., segments from various pieces of music or…
Creative coding is a rapidly expanding domain for both artistic expression and computational education. Numerous libraries and IDEs support creative coding, however there has been little consideration of how the environments themselves…
Creativity in visualisation design is essential for designers and data scientists who need to present data in innovative ways. It is often achieved through sketching or drafting low-fidelity prototypes. However, judging this innovation is…
This study investigates emotional expression and perception in music performance using computational and neurophysiological methods. The influence of different performance settings, such as repertoire, diatonic modal etudes, and…
This paper delves into the intersection of computational theory and music, examining the concept of undecidability and its significant, yet overlooked, implications within the realm of modern music composition and production. It posits that…
In this paper, we introduce our research challenges for creating new musical instruments using everyday-life media with intimate interfaces, such as the self-body, clothes, water and stuffed toys. Various sensor technologies including image…
In many scientific research fields, understanding and visualizing a black-box function in terms of the effects of all the input variables is of great importance. Existing visualization tools do not allow one to visualize the effects of all…
A flexible recommendation and retrieval system requires music similarity in terms of multiple partial elements of musical pieces to allow users to select the element they want to focus on. A method for music similarity learning using…
Machine learning is frequently used in affective computing, but presents challenges due the opacity of state-of-the-art machine learning methods. Because of the impact affective machine learning systems may have on an individual's life, it…
Designing multiscale visualizations, particularly when the ratio between the largest scale and the smallest item is large, can be challenging, and designers have developed many approaches to overcome this challenge. We present a design…
Adapting learning materials to the level of skill of a student is important in education. In the context of music training, one essential ability is sight-reading -- playing unfamiliar scores at first sight -- which benefits from…
In this position paper, we frame the field of Visual Musicology by providing an overview of well-established musicological sub-domains and their corresponding analytic and visualization tasks. To foster collaborative, interdisciplinary…
While all individuals deal with increasingly large amounts of digital information in their everyday lives and professionally, prior works suggest visual artists have unique information management practices and challenges. This study…
The literature describes many visualization techniques for different types of data, tasks, and application contexts, and new techniques are proposed on a regular basis. Visualization surveys try to capture the immense space of techniques…
Music similarity is an essential aspect of music retrieval, recommendation systems, and music analysis. Moreover, similarity is of vital interest for music experts, as it allows studying analogies and influences among composers and…
Musical performance requires prediction to operate instruments, to perform in groups and to improvise. In this paper, we investigate how a number of digital musical instruments (DMIs), including two of our own, have applied predictive…
Data visualization design often requires creativity, and research is needed to understand its nature and means for promoting it. The current visualization literature on creativity is not well developed, especially with respect to the…
While recent years have seen a growing interest in accessible visualization tools and techniques for blind people, little attention is paid to the learning opportunities and teaching strategies of data science and visualization tailored for…
With the rise in pervasive computing solutions, interactive surfaces have gained a large popularity across multi-application domains including smart boards for education, touch-enabled kiosks for smart retail and smart mirrors for smart…
Expert musicians can mould a musical piece to convey specific emotions that they intend to communicate. In this paper, we place a mid-level features based music emotion model in this performer-to-listener communication scenario, and…
