111- Thinking Like a Synthesizer: Applying Algebraic Transformations to Musical Melodies

Thursday, October 22, 2015: 1:30 PM-2:45 PM
421 (Atlantic City Convention Center)

 

Lead Speaker:
Mike J Reiners


 

Every song’s melody can be expressed as a series of integers, each of which represents the number of musical half steps above or below the first note in the song. Using various basic math and music technologies, we will create discrete graphs that we can transform horizontally and vertically—just like composers and synthesizers do!
