~ Guest lecture on `Music Information Retrieval - Opportunities for digital musicology'

This morning I gave a guest lecture introducing the field of music information retrieval to musicology students at Ghent University. Next to the more general MIR intro, two specific topics are fleshed out: duplicate detection and pitch patterns in music around the world. Two topic I have been working on before.

The presentation has the form of an interactive website via reveal.js. It features a couple of slides which are full-blown applications or have an interactive sound visualization component. Please do try out the slides and check the Music Information Retrieval - Opportunities for digital musicology presentation or try it below.
