Notational Communication with Co-creative Systems: Studying Improvements to Musical Coordination

Published: 22 June 2017 Publication History

Abstract

This research examines the impact of differences in extra-musical notational communication on a musician's co-creative experience with a music improvisation system. The method involves the development of musical improvisation agent technologies that support mixed-initiative communication and the use of mixed methods for studying the musician's co-creative engagement. The expected contributions are the findings about the impact of differences in extra-musical communication on the co-creative engagement with co-improvisation systems.
