Tryll

Tryll - Resynthesis of a European robin (Erithacus rubecula), known simply as the robin, a small insectivorous passerine bird that belongs to the chat subfamily of the Old World flycatcher family. During the breeding season, male robins usually initiate their morning song an hour before civil sunrise, and usually terminate their daily singing around thirty minutes after sunset.Nocturnal singing can also occur, especially in urban areas that are artificially lit during the night. Under artificial light, nocturnal singing can be used by urban robins to actively shunt daytime anthropogenic noise. This is an experiment with sinewave oscillators that are trying to replicate constrained versions of the original, natural sound source. Analysis of spectral components and mel-frequency distributions are widely used methods in reconstructing sonic information, machine listening and artificial intelligence. The visualization is an imaginary space where the different synthesis methods have their own corresponding taxonomies and spatial arrangements.
