I present some conceptual and computational tactics related to the metric analysis of speech rhythms. An utterance can be considered metered when it approaches isochrony at the level of the syllable (note) and/or foot (beat). Since the timing patterns of spoken speech resemble those of music, we can apply knowledge of musical meter and expressive timing to the study of speech. However, speech rhythms...
The perception of duration-based syllabic rhythm was examined within a metrical framework. Participants assessed the duration patterns of four-syllable phrases set within the stress structure XxxX (an Abercrombian trisyllabic foot). Using on-screen sliders, participants created percussive sequences that imitated speech rhythms and analogous non-speech monotone rhythms. There was a tendency to equalize...
We present a new system for exploring, in an intuitive and interactive way, a large compendium of data about collaborations between jazz musicians. The system consists of an easy-to-use web application that marries an ego-network view of collaborations with an interactive timeline. We develop a new measure of collaboration strength that is used to highlight strong and weak collaborations in the network...
