Posted: 10 Mar 2014 09:52 AM PDT We recently started a project called MiCLUES to develop dynamic smartphone-based visitor guidance algorithms and software for the Royal College of Music Museum of Instruments. The aim is to enable visitors to make better use of the combined physical and digital collections and to chart both curated and personalised paths through the museum. The project is a collaboration between the RCM and UCL and is funded by Share Academy. Share Academy is an Arts Council England funded programme that aims to develop and foster relationships between London specialist museums and academics at UCL and the University of the Arts London. It has funded 15 projects to help establish best practice and produce guidance for the museum and Higher Education sectors.

Sounds Like DNA – a new web installation for generative music at UCL
Posted: 10 Mar 2014 09:36 AM PDT
As part of our ongoing research and teaching in computer music here at UCL, we’ve been working with a London theatre company, Penny Dreadful Productions. They have a new show currently touring called How to Be Immortal which presents three true-life stories about love, death and DNA and explores these through music and drama. It has been developed with input from UCL scientists. To give an interactive element to accompany the show, we have collaboratively developed an exciting web installation entitled Sounds Like DNA, where you can generate your own music that interprets DNA codes connected with various characteristics set by sliders. You can reach the installation here: bit.ly/DNAsound
