Music Composition through Chat Sonification According to the Polyphonic Model

Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Human - Computer Interaction - Year 2015, Vol 8, Issue 1

Abstract

The paper presents the theoretical details and the description of the implementation of a system of sonication of chat conversations, starting from the textual logs and generating MusicXML format files containing a music representation containing several voices. The system is a manifestation of two ideas, the first being that the speech in conversations, in general, and in particular in the instant messaging chats, have a structure similar to the polyphonic music. The second idea is that sonication, that means an audible representation of a given processes, is a very useful way of investigation. The approach was validated by the fact that the results were particularly appreciated by a composer and also a professor at the Academy of Music in Bucharest and, moreover, have been adapted and presented in a concert at the Romanian Athenaeum.
