Ubimus research focuses on music making in everyday settings, employing creativity-centred design strategies to support creative experiences within artistic and educational endeavours. We report two studies which address the challenges in the design of a creativity support metaphor – time tagging – and that target the application of ecologically grounded creative strategies within formal educational processes as a way to increase social interactions among musicians and laypeople in everyday settings. The first one constitutes a longitudinal planning study featuring group collaborations within the context of educational research activities done by teenagers in a public high school. The second study features several improvisatory sessions by casual participants and musicians at a non-standard venue. We discuss qualitative and quantitative assessments conducted with the teenage students of the first study and with the adult-volunteers of the second study.

An eco-compositional activity took place during 2015 in an elective course offered to secondary students at the UFRGS Application School (CAp). Fifteen students took part in the course, four of which were already Scientific Initiation students within the context of the Ubiquitous Music Research Project at CAp. The course addressed theoretical and practical aspects of Ubiquitous Music (ubimus). Its goal was to produce a collective composition - Sounds of CAp - applying ubimus eco-compositional strategies. During the course, several activities were planned and conducted by the research-students in and outside of the classroom, under teacher/researcher advice. The focus of the experiments was to foster creative experiences through technological support. We describe the experience, the procedures, tools, and the process of collecti...

Our particular research investigates such repurposing of ordinary mobile devices for use in musical activities. In this paper we propose the use of patterns in the design of musical interaction with these devices. We introduce the musical interaction patterns that came out of our investigation so far, and describe the exploratory prototypes which served as inspiration and, at the same time, as testbed for these proposed interaction patterns.

Nós propomos a adoção do termo "Música Ubíqua" (ubimus) para definir práticas que empoderam os participantes de experiências musicais através de ferramentas socialmente orientadas e que estimulem a criatividade. Música Ubíqua é uma nova área de pesquisa que engloba computação ubíqua, computação musical e interação humano-computador, apresentando enormes desafios para desenvolvedores e artistas. Este artigo ressalta a estreita relação entre a pesquisa sobre música ubíqua e a criatividade do dia a dia. Nós ilustramos nossas idéias apresentando alguns protótipos que foram desenvolvidos para dispositivos móveis comuns, que constituem os resultados preliminares e servem ...

Aborda a inclusão de Novas Tecnologias no trabalho curricular emEducação Musical no contexto escolar, levantando alguns pontos e reflexõesrealizados a partir da experiência prática investigativa e apresentando algumasperspectivas educacionais daí derivadas.

CODES, which stands for Cooperative Musical Prototyping Design, is a web-based environment where novices can create musical prototypes (MPs) with a combination of basic sound patterns. These MPs can be shared over the Internet so other users can also cooperatively edit them. The main purpose of Social CODES is to provide support for an online cooperative music-making community. Some characteristics of social network sites and online communities are investigated. A description of how these features have been integrated into CODES is also presented, including user profiles, MPs privacy settings (private, cooperative, public, closed), timelines, notifications, etc.

However, music making in modern life tends to be restricted to the domain of the professional artists, instrumentalists, and singers. Since the advent of Web 2.0 and Rich Internet Applications, the authors' research group has been investigating the use of Web-based technology to support novice-oriented computer-based musical activities. The main motivation of their work is the belief that no previous musical knowledge should be required for participating in creative musical activities. Consequently, any ordinary user—non-musician or novice—may enhance his creativity through engagement, entertainment, and self-expression. The goal of this chapter is to propose several concepts that emerged during their research concerning novice-oriented cooperative music creation and musical knowledge sharing (a sophisticated activity distinct from the common and well-known mus...
