Rusty Bucket

プログラムノート

Rusty Bucket is a interactive performance piece for alto-saxophone and interactive computer system. The piece is consists of two part, saxophone part and computer part. Musical interactions between two parts initiate the piece's progress.

The saxophone part is composed by a composition aided software constructed by the composer. The software named "CACIE" is a composition aided software by means of interactive evolutionary computation, a kind of interactive optimization system by means of a biological evolution model. The model composed motifs, natural selection and reproduce. (See also project page) All motifs of the piece have been evolved by interaction between the composer and the computer system.

The computer part is consists of real-time generated sound effect from Max/MSP. Forthe sound effects, stochastic techniques are often used. The techniques of the pieces is composed an idea biological emergence.

The composer had a image "rain in a rusty bucket" in mind, to make the sound effects including refraction of rain drop, and stochastic behavior.

The piece performed in ICMC 2007 in copenhagen by Jeanette Balland and in IC2007 in Tokyo by Yoko Shishido.

曲はサキソフォンパートとコンピュータパートから構成されている.サキソフォンパートは作曲者により構築された作曲支援システムCACIEを用いて作曲されている.CACIEは対話型の最適化手法の一つである対話型進化論的計算を用いた作曲支援システムである.コンピュータパートは,主にMax/MSPを用いて音響プログラミングがなされ,生物学的な創発をモチーフにした手法により各エフェクトが制御されている.

Rusty Bucketはデンマークのコペンハーゲンで開催された国際コンピュータ音楽会議2007においてJeanette Ballandにより初演された.また,東京ではインターカレッジコンピュータ音楽コンサート2007において宍戸陽子氏により上演された.
