Developing a parametric spatial ramework for digital drumming

This research operates at the intersection of music and spatial design within the context of improvised digital drumming. We outline a creative design research project founded on a series of affordance experiments that explore the ways in which the tools of spatial design can inform understandings of 'referent (Pressing 1987)' improvised patterns and phrases employed by experienced drummers. We outline the stages and process of development of a parametric computational framework using software from the spatial design industry to provide affordance (Gibson 1979) to understanding the complexities of drum improvisation. The 'ImprovSpace' Grasshopper script, operating within Rhino3DTM enables the 3D spatialization of digital drum-based improvisations wherein the parameters of drum notes, duration and velocity all can be flexibly manipulated. Drum phrases and patterns can be compared individually and clusters of repeated elements can be found within a larger corpus of improvisations. The framework enables insights into the specific attributes that constitute individual style including micro-timing, rubato and other elements of style. It is proposed that, by bringing these improvisations into visual and spatial domain in plan, elevation and isometric projections, a theoretic musico-perspectival hinge may be deconstructed that provides insights for visually and spatially dominant musicians within reflective, educational and other contexts

Gned, and a phylogenetic tree was constructed by the neighbor-joining method. The corresponding nucleotide sequence of Aino virus strain JaNAr28 in the genus was used as an outgroup to root the tree. The percentage bootstrap values calculated from 1000 replications are indicated above the internal nodes. The scale represents the 10% nucleotide sequence divergence. The geographical origin and year of isolation of the strains are given in the parentheses.<p><b>Copyright information:</b></p><p>Taken from "Bovine epizootic encephalomyelitis caused by Akabane virus in southern Japan"</p><p>http://www.biomedcentral.com/1746-6148/4/20</p><p>BMC Veterinary Research 2008;4():20-20.</p><p>Published online 13 Jun 2008</p><p>PMCID:PMC2443122.</p><p></p
