Exploring Emotion in Sub-Structural Aspects of Karelian Lament: Application of Time Series Analysis to Digitized Melody
Kathryn Vaughn · Yearbook for Traditional Music · 1990
Interest in the aid of computers within musicology has so far mainly been concentrated on (a) documentation and (b) analysis of music as notated. It still remains to take the important step into that vast field of material, problems, and research that could be labeled music as performed, both as regards the physiological, the acoustical, and the perceptive side. Here it seems possible to predict the arrival of a quite new type of research in the near future. One main problem that remains to be solved is the transformation of registered data from analogous to digital form to get numerical values directly printed out or otherwise stored for computer treatment.
