The Digital Da Vinci book series opens with the interviews of music
mogul Quincy Jones, MP3 inventor Karlheinz Brandenburg, Tommy Boy
founder Tom Silverman and entertainment attorney Jay L. Cooper. A
strong supporter of science, technology, engineering and
mathematics programs in schools, The Black Eyed Peas founding
member will.i.am announced in July 2013 his plan to study computer
science. Leonardo da Vinci, the epitome of a Renaissance man, was
an Italian polymath at the turn of the 16th century. Since the
Industrial Revolution in the 18th century, the division of labor
has brought forth specialization in the workforce and university
curriculums. The endangered species of polymaths is facing
extinction. Computer science has come to the rescue by enabling
practitioners to accomplish more than ever in the field of music.
In this book, Newton Lee recounts his journey in executive
producing a Billboard-charting song like managing agile software
development; M. Nyssim Lefford expounds producing and its effect on
vocal recordings; Dennis Reidsma, Mustafa Radha and Anton Nijholt
survey the field of mediated musical interaction and musical
expression; Isaac Schankler, Elaine Chew and Alexandre Francois
describe improvising with digital auto-scaffolding; Shlomo Dubnov
and Greg Surges explain the use of musical algorithms in machine
listening and composition; Juan Pablo Bello discusses machine
listening of music; Stephen and Tim Barrass make smart things
growl, purr and sing; Raffaella Folgieri, Mattia Bergomi and Simone
Castellani examine EEG-based brain-computer interface for emotional
involvement in games through music and last but not least, Kai Ton
Chau concludes the book with computer and music pedagogy. Digital
Da Vinci: Computers in Music is dedicated to polymathic education
and interdisciplinary studies in the digital age empowered by
computer science. Educators and researchers ought to encourage the
new generation of scholars to become as well rounded as a
Renaissance man or woman.
