The article presents a contextual survey of eight contributions in the special issue Musical Interactions (Volume I) in Multimodal Technologies and Interaction. The presentation includes (1) a critical examination of what it means to be musical, to devise the concept of music proper to MTI as well as multicultural proximity, and (2) a conceptual framework for instrumentation, design, and assessment of musical interaction research through five enabling dimensions: Affordance; Design Alignment; Adaptive Learning; Second-Order Feedback; Temporal Integration. Each dimension is discussed and applied in the survey. The results demonstrate how the framework provides an interdisciplinary scope required for musical interaction, and how this approach may offer a coherent way to describe and assess approaches to research and design as well as implementations of interactive musical systems. Musical interaction stipulates musical liveness for experiencing both music and technologies. While music may be considered ontologically incomplete without a listener, musical interaction is defined as ontological completion of a state of music and listening through a listener’s active engagement with musical resources in multimodal information flow.

Musical Interaction

This study examines ngelik silihan in Surakarta style music. The problems revealed in this study are (1) How can ngelik in Surakarta style music, (2) Why does the Eling-eling ladrang dish generally use ngelik?, (3) Any factors that support a loan of ngelik silihan. This research is a qualitative research, data obtained from literature studies, observations, and interviews. The theory used as the basis for analyzing in accordance with the formulation of the problem is the creativity theory by Wallas about the process of creativity, and the theory of musical interaction by Benjamin Briner about musical interactions that occur in gending, and the theory of melodic contour by Judith Bekker about the melody flow obtained in theory worked on by Rahayu Supanggah, in the theory of the melodic contour it can emphasize the problem of the melody flow in the interconnected selection. The results of this study found that the use of ngelik silihan there are three factors, namely: 1. Shifting the function of the presentation, 2. Creativity of the artists. The use of ngelik silihan with consideration of the same melodic and song gong grooves, so that it is aligned with the borrowed portion of the loan, 3. Pathet factors for the lending and borrowed selection. In addition there is a historical statement that the Pangkur ladrang borrowed the Eling-eling ladrang. Information on the artist community that the Eling-eling ladrang borrowed the Pangkur ladrang, the reasons are: 1. Recognition of the perpetual artists acquired, 2. Manuscripts in the Mloyowidodo notation book, 3. Commercial cassette tapes which first popularized the Eling-ladrang ladrang from at Pangkur ladrang.Keywords: Ngelik, Silihan, Song, Sèlèh, Gending.

Multimodal Information

AbstractWith this commentary, I raise two issues relevant to the theoretical framework from a developmental perspective. First, the infants' emotional responses are induced by the music as well as by the multimodal information they perceive in interaction with their mothers, and these responses change with time. Second, contrary to what is suggested in the target article, musical expectancy is already experienced by young infants.

Musical Interaction

<p>Stevan Mokranjac, who is among the founders of Serbian national music, came with the Belgrade Choral Society to Ottoman lands to give a concert in 1895, during the reign of Sultan Abdulhamid II. Mokranjac’s visit is important both in terms of presenting the developments in Western music area in Ottoman Empire as well as showing the diplomatic interactions of the two countries in relation to music. In this concerts it is observed that the Western music performance and composition practices that the Ottomans initiated during 19. century were adopted by the Serbian musicians. Moreover, the constructional similarities and interactions in institutionalization of Western music in both countries takes attention.</p><p>This article aims to reveal the Ottoman-Serbian musical interaction, about which no specific research was not traced, in line with the composer, musician, conductor Stevan Mokranjac, who is not very well known in Turkish music history, and Belgrad Choral Society’s Istanbul visit through the support of historical documents obtained by archival research.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Özet</strong></p><p>Sırp ulusal müziğinin kurucularından Stevan Mokranjac, Belgrad Koro Topluluğu’yla birlikte 1895 yılında, Sultan II.

Mokranjac’in bu ziyareti hem Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nda Batı müziği alanındaki gelişmeleri gözler önüne sermek hem de iki ülke arasındaki diplomatik ilişkilerin müzik bağlamında etkileşimini göstermek bakımından önemlidir.

Musical Interactions

Three older Australians’ active engagement in music making with children was examined in this phenomenological study. Intergenerational music engagement was explored, focusing on the perspectives of the older Australians engaged in these musical interactions and, in particular, perceived benefits in being part of these musical interactions. Data were gathered through a series of open-ended, one-on-one interviews. Analysis of the data revealed five key themes about intergenerational (IG) music engagement: (1) IG music experiences promoted social engagement; (2) IG music experiences fostered the development of positive attitudes about young people; (3) choice in music making was valued in the IG music experiences; (4) involvement in IG music experiences resulted in the older Australians feeling valued and respected; and (5) there was the perception of reciprocity in the learning that occurred in the IG music experiences. Implications of intergenerational music engagement for music education are discussed.

Insight Into

THOUGHT AND PLAY IN MUSICAL RHYTHM seeks to explore representations, ideal types, and implicit theorizing of rhythm in relation to aspects of performance that “play”—that pull against these ideal types, resist objectification, and/or are elastic. Our aim has been to incorporate a diversity of musical traditions and scholarly approaches, embracing those of performers, music theorists, and music ethnographers. The performance dynamic implicit in “thought and play” can, with some imagination, be recast in terms of a larger dynamic in scholarly discourse on rhythm and music more generally—that between “universalizing” and “local” approaches. The former include efforts to create overarching models that accommodate the diversity of music and to gain insight into human cognition generally, as well as craft terminologies (meter, beat, etc.) that apply cross-culturally. Local, by contrast, signals attention to musical systems and practices as they are constituted in one region, however narrowly or broadly defined; attention focuses on the specifics of musical interaction, uses of language, and regional histories. Most music scholars attempt to bring out the historical and regional specificity of what they study while also contributing to general knowledge about musical process....

Tuning Systems

Musical tuning systems are found in intriguing diversity in human cultures around the world and over the history of human music-making. Traditional justifications for the adoption of such musical systems consider tuning an algorithmic optimization of consonance. However, it is unclear how this can be implemented in a realistic evolutionary process, with no central entity in charge of optimization. Inspired by the methodology of artificial language evolution, the author proposes that tuning systems can emerge as the result of local musical interactions in a population. His computer simulations show that such interactional mechanisms are capable of generating coherent artificial tunings that resemble natural systems, sometimes with a diversity and complexity unaccounted for by previous theoretical justifications.

This article considers some of the present-day issues, challenges and possibilities facing television broadcasting via a critical examination of the recently published Goldsmiths report on the future of public service television in the twenty-first century. Focusing mainly on UK terrestrial broadcasters (BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5), the article summarises and expands on the report's key findings and recommendations, particularly in relation to questions concerning digitalisation, content, diversity, quality, marketisation, funding and national and regional heritage. The article argues that, despite the rise of the Internet and the proliferation of digital platforms, television viewing remains a common source of information and entertainment and is characterised by meaningful continuities. Additionally, the article outlines the vitally important role played by David Puttnam, chair of the Goldsmiths inquiry, in defending public service television through his active engagement with relevant parliamentary committees and as a widely respected media professional. Finally, the article reflects on the continuing relevance of the 1962 Pilkington Report on Broadcasting, which was similarly commissioned in order to evaluate the purposes of television. In so doing, the article suggests that Pilkington's criticisms of creeping commercialism and the ensuing regulatory proposals still represent a cogent engagement with the idea of public service broadcasting as a primary facilitator of deliberative democracy.

Musical Interaction

ABSTRACT This paper explains a process of musical interaction in jazz music performances, on the performances of Solo Jazz Society musicians in Surakarta. The focus of this paper is about (1) how the process of musical interaction between Sojazz musicians occurs and (2) what factors cause musical interaction between Sojazz musicians. With the aim (1) to know how the process of musical interactions between Sojazz musicians occur and (2) to know the factors that cause the musical interactions between Sojazz musicians. The research method used is qualitative with descriptive analysis approach. n the performance, Sojazz musicians perform musical interactions between musicians through two forms of process. Gesture interactions that include eye contact, hand code, head jerking, lip reading and overall body posture are applied as cues while improvising. The second form of the process is through the musical interaction itself which is Accompaniment, melodic phrase and rhythmic motif, tension growth, and trade four. The process of musical interaction applied by Sojazz musicians as mentioned above, is through gesture used to create mutual interaction between musicians. Kata kunci : Solo Jazz Society, interaksi musikal jazz,
