Abstract

This Project is hosted of the Graduation program of the Instituto de Artes da Unicamp (IA) at Campinas/São Paulo and developed inside the Núcleo Interdisciplinar de Comunicação Sonora (NICS). The aim of this project is to study heuristics and musical formalization to compose textural music, focusing on applications of projections on a multidimenstional space to design music structures. The research pretend to elaborate strategies to develop compositional gestures and to analyze processes created to compose textural music. Both aspects will be the basis for developing sound functors, that means, formal methods that will support music composition. This Project furthering an initial research realized in a Master degree course realized by the proponent where analytical plane geometry was the main idea used to compose music.
