• Songwriting and AI (2024) author(s): Celine Lyng published in: University of Agder, Faculty of Fine Arts
  In this thesis, I explore and research songwriters' experience of using artificial intelligence as a songwriting tool. To do so, three participants have explored the use of two different artificial intelligence tools in their songwriting session, in collaboration with me. One of the tools is used to inspire lyrical writing and one is to create a starting point for chord progressions. To gather data, I have had three collaborative songwriting sessions, where the artists and I use the tools whilst writing a song for their artist project. As well as the sessions, there was held six qualitative interviews, two per artist. The first one was for documenting their prior experience and expectations. The second interview was held after they had received a produced demo. This was used to ask about their experiences writing songs with artificial intelligence. We also talked about the song related to ownership. The thesis questions whether artificial intelligence will make one more productive, too productive, or even if the tools can be perceived as distracting. In addition to using Artificial Intelligence in three different songwriting sessions, I have researched the ethical dilemmas with using AI, such as copyright infringements, and discussing options for opting out of having one’s work be a part of the training of an AI. My personal journey highly inspires the thesis through using artificial intelligence for my musical project. By using the same process as the three participants are taking part in, my debut EP, Sugarcoated, was created. This thesis is approved by SIKT (816719).

• Idé-generering for gitarister: Kreative Metoder som utgangspunkt for komposisjon (2024) author(s): Hans-Kristian Holthe published in: University of Agder, Faculty of Fine Arts
  I denne research-creation oppgaven har jeg utforsket hvordan gitarister tar i bruk kreative verktøy for å utløse og realisere idéer. Jeg har i løpet av oppgaven intervjuet et utvalg gitarister samt innhentet data fra lydinnsamling. Som en del av oppgaven har jeg også komponert 6 komposisjoner som jeg presenterer i løpet av resultatene. I refleksjonen reflekterer jeg rundt samspillet mellom både vitenskapelige og kunstneriske metoder, og funnene som har blitt gjort. Dette har resultert i ny kunnskap både i utløsnings- og realiserings-stadiet i komponeringsprosessen.

  Ableton Live som kreativt verktøy for trommeslagere (2024) author(s): Solveig Nyhus published in: University of Agder, Faculty of Fine Arts
  I dette kunstneriske utviklingsarbeidet har jeg eksperimentert med ulike måter å bruke Ableton Live som et kreativt verktøy. Dette med utgangspunkt i mitt hovedinstrument - trommer. Jeg har som en del av masteroppgaven komponert og produsert tre låter. Beskrivelsen av og refleksjonen rundt komposisjonsprosessen presenteres i kontekst av vitenskapelig teori og metode. I løpet av refleksjonen setter jeg ord på en ny bevisstgjøring rundt min kombinerte rolle som utøver, komponist og produsent gjennom solo-komprovisasjon og hvordan dette har gitt meg ny innsikt i egne estetiske preferanser. Jeg reflekterer også over hvordan teknologien jeg benyttet meg av påvirket komposisjonene, hovedsakelig hvordan trommespillet, sound, lydvalg og formen på låtene ble direkte påvirket av hvordan jeg samhandlet med teknologien.

• Guidelines for internal academic assessment of publications in RC, Faculty of Fine Arts, UiA (2024) author(s): Astrid Marie Lund Gilje published in: University of Agder, Faculty of Fine Arts
  To showcase the width of artistic research and at the faculty, and with reference to the faculty's unique profile where we incorporate artistic, pedagogical, and academic methodologies without seeing them as rigidly separate, colleagues are invited to present and publish artistic research in a broad sense through the RC platform, with a special emphasis on using multiple modalities other than text to showcase the work (sound, image, film, etc). We use Research in the Arts as an overarching term, drawing on both the research traditions of Artistic Research and Arts-based Research for the design and objectives of the faculty's publication through Research Catalogue
