El proyecto Science of the city. Territorio de encuentro entre arte, ciencia y ciudad

El objetivo de este artículo es presentar la experiencia colaborativa entre el proyecto Science of the city y el grupo de investigación"Metamétodo. Metodologías compartidas y procesos artísticos en la sociedad del conocimiento" de la Facultad de Bellas Artes de la UB y La Mandarina de Newton, empresa emergente en el ámbito de la divulgación científica, interesada en nuevas estrategias y formas de pensar la ciencia que reviertan en la transmisión del conocimiento. Las cuestiones ¿Qué es ciencia? y ¿Qué es ciudad? o ¿Dónde encontramos la ciencia en la ciudad? fueron el punto de partida del proyecto Science of the city, ideado por La Mandarina de Newton. Los organizadores lanzaron una convocatoria a través de la red, en formato de concurso internacional de vídeos que debían tratar estas cuestiones. El propósito era acercar la ciencia a las experiencias cotidianas de los habitantes de la ciudad y a su vez, obtener una respuesta en formato de vídeo que nos sirviera como punto de partida para los artistas integrantes de nuestro grupo de investigación para elaborar nuestras propias obras. Los vídeos ganadores y las obras resultantes de esta experiencia conformaron la exposición Science of the City, proyecto financiado por el FECYT. La exposición pudo verse en el espacio Arts Santa Mònica de Barcelona en mayo del pasado 2012. Los procesos de trabajo y las reflexiones quedaron recopilados en una publicación multilingüe.

Short-term Feature Space and Music Genre Classification

In music genre classification, most approaches rely on statistical characteristics of low-level features computed on short audio frames. In these methods, it is implicitly considered that frames carry equally relevant information loads and that either individual frames, or distributions thereof, somehow capture the specificities of each genre. In this paper we study the representation space defined by short-term audio features with respect to class boundaries, and compare different processing techniques to partition this space. These partitions are evaluated in terms of accuracy on two genre classification tasks, with several types of classifiers. Experiments show that a randomized and unsupervised partition of the space, used in conjunction with a Markov Model classifier lead to accuracies comparable to the state of the art. We also show that unsupervised partitions of the space tend to create less hubs.

Public Art. Timeline of the XXth Century Evolution

The concept of public art is a polysemic term, and the dispersion of its meaning is reflected in the different ways of working during the XXth Century. It cross the fields of sculpture, monument, visual arts and urban space, defined from a civic perspective. This timeline had been constructed after the publications of my PhD: http://www.tesisenred.net/handle/10803/1549
