[Online] Sixth Latin America BISH Bash: Acoustic, Speech and Audio Processing

LatAm BISH Bash is a series of meetings and networking events that connect engineers, researchers, students, and companies working on speech, acoustics, and audio processing. For the sixth edition, we're going to have a presentation by Carlos Eduardo Cancino-Chacón, Assistant Professor at the Institute of Computational Perception, Johannes Kepler University.

Towards an Expressive Computational Music (Co-)Performer

With advances in AI and machine learning, there is a rising interest in developing interactive interfaces that allow people (both musicians and non-musicians) to explore music performance. The ACCompanion is an expressive automatic accompaniment system which enables collaborative music performance between humans and computers. This system is capable of creating a human-like rendition of the accompaniment part of a piece of music in real-time, adapting to the soloist's tempo, dynamics, and articulation choices. This talk will discuss the components of the ACCompanion, including real-time score following, and expressive performance generation.
We will also explore the concept of togetherness in musical human-computer interaction, highlighting the challenges and potential of using artificial co-performers, which could serve as a platform in which to test hypotheses about the process of togetherness, as well as being a useful tool for music education and promoting the engagement of non-musicians with music.

The presentation will happen on December 13t at

• 10 am EST (UTC-5)
• 12 pm BRT (UTC-3)
• 4 pm CET (UTC+1)
