ABSTRACT Ubiquitous music (UbiMus) proposes to study how social interaction with mobile and distributed technologies can converge to form novel creativity support tools and music artistic practices. A recent field overlapping with UbiMus is the Internet of Musical Things, which refers to ecosystems of interconnected embedded computers (Musical Things) enabling users to produce, interact with or experience musical content. Musical Things embed electronics, sensors, data forwarding and processing…

Cloud-smart Musical Instrument Interactions
TLDR
A smart guitar prototype is presented that allows retrieving songs from large online music databases using criteria different from conventional music search, which were derived from interviewing 30 guitar players.
Populating the Smart Musical Instruments Ontology with Data
TLDR
This paper presents a linked data service exposing metadata about SMIs structured according to the Smart Musical Instruments Ontology, as well as a Web application for its extension and retrieval, showing how to retrieve detailed information using metadata describing the SMIs domain.
Guitar augmentation for Percussive Fingerstyle: Combining self-reflexive practice and user-centred design
TLDR
This NIME topic is explored in the context of building the first iteration of an augmented acoustic guitar prototype for percussive fingerstyle guitarists, with feedback on two configurations of the prototype, one equalising the signal of surface sensors and the other based on sample triggering.
Percussive Fingerstyle Guitar through the Lens of NIME: an Interview Study
Percussive fingerstyle is a playing technique adopted by many contemporary acoustic guitarists, and it has grown substantially in popularity over the last decade. Its foundations lie in the use of…

Machine Learning-Based Improvement of Musical Digital Processing Technology on Musical Performance
TLDR
This study offers a low-complexity feature space minimal variance algorithm that combines the power approach to address the concerns of inadequate resolution improvement, excessive complexity, poor real-time performance, and low resilience of standard MV methods.
Generating sound palettes for a Freesound concatenative synthesizer to support creativity
TLDR
This thesis focuses on the specific case of a concatenative synthesizer connected to Freesound and evaluations show that the search method does not seem to have a significant influence on the CSI score and thus on the creative process, and there is also no clear favourite in the qualitative assessment.
Elk Audio OS
TLDR
The Elk Audio OS is a Linux-based OS optimized for ultra-low-latency and high-performance audio and sensor processing on embedded hardware, as well as for handling wireless connectivity to local and remote networks.

Internet of Musical Things: Vision and Challenges
TLDR
This paper presents a vision in which the IoMusT enables the connection of digital and physical domains by means of appropriate information and communication technologies, fostering novel musical applications and services and identifies key capabilities missing from today's systems.
Co-Design of Musical Haptic Wearables for Electronic Music Performer's Communication
TLDR
A user-centered design methodology was adopted to develop a novel class of IoT devices that are designed to address creative communication issues among performers in electronic music practice and provide evidence that musical haptic wearables can be an effective medium of communication in the context of electronic music performances.
How Ubiquitous Technologies Support Ubiquitous Music
TLDR
This chapter describes how to leverage ubiquitous technologies to support ubiquitous music, and discusses ideas and techniques that can assist in ensuring that social music activities provide an appropriate variety of experiences and strategies to maximize socially positive and musically creative outcomes.
Some reflections on the relation between augmented and smart musical instruments
TLDR
From the analysis it emerges that SMIs are not a subcategory of AMIs, rather they share some of their features, and it is suggested that smartification is a process that encompasses augmentation, as well as that the artistic and pedagogical practices supported by SMIs may extend those offered by AMIs.
Smart Musical Instruments: Vision, Design Principles, and Future Directions
TLDR
A vision for this recent research area, which merges the research fields on digital musical instruments and smart objects, and fosters new types of interactions between the player and the instrument, between thePlayer and other players, and between the Player and audience members is depicted.
Playsound.space: Inclusive Free Music Improvisations Using Audio Commons
TLDR
Results indicate that the system was found easy to use and supports creative collaboration and expressiveness irrespective of musical ability.
Musicians' initial encounters with a smart guitar
TLDR
This paper presents a case study of a fully working prototype of the Sensus smart guitar, and highlights how smartness was experienced in relation to the guitar's agency and the skills it requires, the tension between explicit and implicit body movements, and to performing and producing music.
Jamming with a Smart Mandolin and Freesound-based Accompaniment
TLDR
Two use cases investigating how audio content retrieved from Freesound can be leveraged by performers or audiences to produce accompanying soundtracks for music performance with a smart mandolin are presented.
Open Symphony: Creative Participation for Audiences of Live Music Performances
TLDR
Open Symphony is designed to explore audience-performer interaction in live music performances, assisted by digital technology, and identified further design challenges around audience sense of control, learnability, and compositional structure.
Ecologically Grounded Creative Practices in Ubiquitous Music
TLDR
This article summarises several findings in ubiquitous music research, pointing to new theoretical frameworks that tackle the volatile and distributed creativity factors involved in musical activities that take place outside of traditional venues, involving the audience as an active creative partner.
