 | Hello everyone,
The Media Computing Group (i10, http://media.informatik.rwth-aachen.de)
is currently looking for a diplom student to work on a project studying
the relationship between the rhythm of dance movements and music.
This project involves analysing the rhythm of dance movements measured
using accelerometers attached to various joints on the body. The basic
project idea:
* retrieve the data from the accelerometers (the hardware and
technical specifications will be given)
* write some tools to visualise and compare the data (frequency,
phases) using Matlab or a similar tool
* determine a simple mapping based on the rhythmic patterns of
dance movements to control the tempo and volume of an audio
recording
The longer term goal is to be able to use rhythmic characteristics of
dance movements to determine music genre, and to create computer music
using input from the dance movements.
Experience with Mac OS X would be a plus, but not required. English
proficiency is a must.
