Abstract

This paper presents the creation of two music pieces using motivic through-composition techniques applied to a previously presented NIME: a Network of Intelligent Sound Agents. The compositions take advantage of the characteristics of the system, which is designed to monitor, predict and react to the performer's level of engagement. In the set of visual and written instructions comprising the scores, the network is fed with pre-composed musical motifs, stimulating responses from the system that relate to the inputted musical material. We also discuss some of the key challenges in applying traditional composition techniques to an intelligent interactive system.
