Our Profile

What our system does.

Our system enables users to control brand music such as advertising jingles by the interaction. The software makes sure that the interactive music is perceived as harmonic at any time, and that it complies with specific requirements to brand melodies such as distinctiveness and brand fit.

What the benefit is.

Modern interactive ads allow to play with visual parts of the brand identity such as the brand logo. The benefit is a more intensely engagement with the brand and a better recall. The identity of many brands is also defined by an acoustic appearance. Our system helps to include it to the interactive experience.

How it works.

To enable users to control brand melodies by the interaction, we use a novel technique of algorithmic composition based on soft constraints. Our software coordinates the requirements of user interaction, the acoustic identity of a brand and the harmonic and rhythmic concordance of instruments in real-time.

brandsonics @ CHI 2011

Within a scientific publication at the workshop Performative Interaction in Public Space in conjunction with CHI 2011 we discussed the prospects of the technology to also control performative aspects of the interaction with music in public settings.
The software potentially can extend the possibilities of acting out deliberate performative gestures, be used in staged performances, control visuals or coordinate the actions of multiple users.
