Composing with soundscapes: an approach based on raw data reinterpretation. In M. Carvalhais, & M. Verdicchio (Eds.), xCoAx 2014: Proceedings of the Conference on Computation, Communication, Aesthetics and X (pp. 260-273)9789897460364b2a060e2-b8f3-4eb0-9b42-d6db800e0167http://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/55505URB is a research project designed to collect and store raw data from soundscapes analysis. This paper presents a study about composing music using URB based on the analysis of work developed by several sound artists, focusing on the evaluation of their creative process and musical outcome. By comparing the processes and statements of each composer, the authors identified diverse systematic approaches to reinterpreting raw data provided by URB, raising questions about the musical outcomes vs original sound sources. Furthermore, some considerations are inferred about the artistic relevance of using URB to compose music.engCompositionData reinterpretationNetwork musicSoundscapesconference proceedings
