DU GRAIN À LA MUSIQUE : MANIPULATIONS EN TEMPS RÉEL

Dans cet article, nous présenterons une étude comparative de quelques techniques de manipulation du signal comme la Transformée de Fourier à Court Terme, la Synthèse Granulaire Asynchrone et PSOLA, notamment dans le cadre de leur utilisation en temps réel. Nous présenterons succinctement le fonctionnement de ces trois méthodes dans l’environnement Max / MSP avec l’utilisation de la librairie GABOR. La manipulation des paramètres propres à chaque méthode a des conséquences sur les variables musicales, et l’utilisation de ces méthodes implique des corrélations entre les paramètres techniques du traitement du signal et des attributs musicaux spécifiques. Ainsi, nous essayerons d’explorer les espaces des paramètres et de la perception musicales entre le temps, la période et le spectre (les rythmes, les fréquences et les timbres) en comparant les différentes méthodes en vue de leur croisement dans un système de traitement commun.

Gestão de Informação: Inteligência Artificial

A informação e a sua gestão é considerada nos nossos dias como o principal factor de sucesso ou insucesso para qualquer actividade económica ou social. O desenvolvimento de novas tecnologias força todos os agentes econcómicos a desenvolverem-se nestas áreas para conseguirem vantagens concorrenciais. Este trabalho visa fazer uma apresentação de uma “nova” área da ciência da computação a que se chamou Inteligência Artificial.
