Re: music mood

["Steven R. Livingstone" <srl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Luis,

My work focuses on the reverse of this problem, influencing musical 
emotions (e.g., make "happier").  This is achieved with a computational 
model that modifies musical features in real-time (tempo, key, mode, 
articulation, etcetera).  Consequently, such features can also assist in 
determining a work's 'mood', as suggested by Joanna.   This work is 
similar to the pDM extension by Friberg (referenced previously).

Adaptation for Music Emotion. Australasian Conference on Interactive 
Entertainment.

Regards,
Steven.
