Some New Methods of Music Synthesis.

Abstract

There are two distinct sections to this thesis. The first section discusses music composition, shows why it is a useful domain for Artificial Intelligence research and presents a set of 'Design Rules' that facilitate research in the field of tonal music composition. The second section describes some of the problems and issues encountered while designing the initial hardware for the Music Aided Cognition at M.I.T. All of the developed hardware permits computer control, performance and recording of music in real time.
