- OFAI-TR-2010-09 (
434kB PDF file)Towards automated annotation of acousmatic music
- Volkmar Klien, Thomas Grill, Arthur Flexer
- At the Austrian Research Institute for Artificial Intelligence
(OFAI) we are currently undertaking a two year
research project entitled "Towards Automatic Annotation of
Electroacoustic Music" investigating the possibilities and
potential obstacles for finding (partial) solutions to problems
related to computer assisted annotation of electroacoustic
music.
Setting aside technological issues pertaining to the relevant
fields of signal processing and music information retrieval
the paper at hand aims at outlining the reasons behind
our choice of Smalleys theory of spectromorphology (SM)
as our conceptual background, issues pertaining to the role
of the annotated score, the formalisation of spectromorphology
for automation as well as potential limitations. Given
that neither the manual annotation of acousmatic music nor
the technical implementation thereof can be seen as straightforward
matters, research in this area is still at a very basic
level making fully automatic and even fully functional semiautomatic
annotation of electroacoustic sound a long-term
research goal.
