Rhythm Beyond Measure: Computational and Ethnographic Approaches to Analysing Free-Rhythm Taksim Improvisation [dataset]

The submission of the PhD dissertation includes folders containing supporting documentation for accessing the audio examples referenced in the data. The documents are organised by chapter, with one folder per chapter containing all the audio examples presented in the dissertation. In addition to the audio files, each full-length taksim analysed in this dissertation is accompanied by the following supporting documentation: • Sonic Visualiser file (.sv file) This file works in conjunction with the corresponding audio file found in the same folder. It displays the onset and phrase segmentations for the respective taksim. Additionally, it provides a visual representation of phrases and cadences. The most effective way to listen to the taksims while following the analysis is through Sonic Visualiser, as it allows for real-time tracking of phrase segmentation and cadences. • Onset segmentation file (MusicianTaksim00_onset.csv) • Phrase segmentation file (MusicianTaksim00_phrases.csv) • Section segmentation file (MusicianTaksim00_subgroups.csv) • Cadential phrases selection file (MusicianTaksim00_cadentialphrases.csv)
