Abstract

Lament is an interactive cabaret song in which skeletal upper body motion capture of the vocalist drives musical outcomes. The cabaret context in part drives the musical content of the work, which draws from popular, experimental, and minimalist musical traditions. The performer movements are influenced by both flamenco and Argentine tango dance technique, but are representative of neither. While some melodic and harmonic content is fixed, the system employs machine learning techniques to generate melodies in real-time. Other harmonic and melodic content is determined by the relationship between one part of the performer's body and another.
