1	Funktionen av stokastisk musik i datorspel : En undersökning av stokastiskt rekombinerad musiks påverkan i spelet Thunder League / The function of stochastic music in computer games : A study on the influence of stochastically recombined music in the game Thunder League Engström, Victor January 2016 (has links) Denna studies syfte var att undersöka om det finns någon skillnad i hur stokastiskt rekombinerad musik upplevs jämfört med linjär musik i datorspelet Thunder League (2015, Hellion Studios). Åtta informanter spelade två olika versioner av spelet, en med stokastiskt rekombinerad och en med linjär uppspelning av samma musik. Därefter intervjuades de om sin upplevelse och vilka skillnader de lade märke till mellan versionerna. Resultatet på undersökning visar att informanterna oftare tyckte att den stokastiskt rekombinerade musiken var bättre än den linjära. Resultatet visade också att informanterna inte överväldigande upplevde någon av metoderna mindre repetitiv. Frågan skulle kunna undersökas igen för att säkerställa resultaten igenom till exempel en större undersökning med tillhandahållande av spelet och formulär över internet för att på ett mer resurseffektivt sätt nå ut till fler människor.

2	Resonant Ecologies: Exploring Interrelationships between Ecological Disciplines and Music Composition Gerard, Garrison C. 07 1900 (has links) The histories of acoustic ecology, field recording, and soundscape composition are intertwined. This combination of disciplines has lead to the potential for powerful insights, but an over-emphasis on music composition using recorded sound has to led to some problematic tendencies in the study of soundscapes. I begin by tracing the development of acoustic ecology and related disciplines, leading to a proposal for a practice of acoustic ecology that centers the study of all sounds from an ecological perspective and incorporates the insights of creative practices. I include the results and data from my acoustic surveys in Patagonia, Iceland, and Texas. These three locations are varied in their climate, and they are all threatened by noise pollution or human interference from one source or another. Each survey plots out the daily sound activity in a given location and then includes information such as decibel level and the amount of anthropogenic noise. Using the field recordings from my acoustic surveys, I composed a non-linear piece, Resonance Ecology, that generates soundscapes by combining sounds from different locations based on connections such as geography or weather patterns. There is also the option for acoustic performers to perform alongside the electronics, creating an unpredictably evolving soundscape. The structure of the piece mirrors the ecosystems that serve as the foundation and inspiration of the piece. Importantly, the composition is not meant to represent the real ecosystems, but rather serves as an surreal ecosystem portraying my experience in these locations.
