<h2 id="overview">Overview</h2>

<p>This test is not a finished musical work, but an audio experiment comparing duration-cell structures.</p>

<h2 id="methodology">Methodology</h2>

<p>Duration sequences were extracted from lyric-aligned Japanese folk song MIDI event data.</p>

<p>Based on nPVI analysis and duration classification, this test uses only binary-duration cells.</p>

<h2 id="comparison-design">Comparison Design</h2>

<p><strong>Type A: Repeated Identical Cells</strong></p>
<ul>
  <li>Cell sequence: C1 → C1 → C1 → C1</li>
  <li>Duration values: 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5</li>
  <li>Total duration: 6.0 beats</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>Type B: Cell Transition with Duration Differences</strong></p>
<ul>
  <li>Cell sequence: C1 → C4 → C2 → C1</li>
  <li>Duration values: 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.25 - 0.5 - 0.25 - 0.25 - 0.5 - 0.5 - 0.5</li>
  <li>Total duration: 5.25 beats</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="experimental-settings">Experimental Settings</h2>

<ul>
  <li>Type A and Type B use the same pitch sequence and the same number of notes (12)</li>
  <li>The total duration is <strong>not normalized</strong></li>
  <li>The final cell in Type B is a comparison terminus, not an observed transition from the folk data</li>
  <li>Non-binary durations are kept as observation targets for later work, but are not used in this test</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="findings">Findings</h2>

<p>Different cell-transition patterns within binary-duration systems produce audible differences in temporal structure when applied to identical pitch sequences.</p>

<p><strong>Purpose:</strong> Verify three implementation aspects of WCT Week 2:</p>
<ol>
  <li>Rendering wct_plain (simplified SynthDef) through the NRT pipeline</li>
  <li>Comparing output from mogami and wct_plain using identical note and duration data</li>
  <li>Confirming AAC/m4a as a stable audio format for publication</li>
</ol>

<p><strong>Setup:</strong></p>
<ul>
  <li>Notes and durations: identical to WCT Week 1 (16 notes, 4.5-second sequence)</li>
  <li>SynthDef comparison: mogami (existing) vs wct_plain (new)</li>
  <li>Audio formats: WAV (primary record), m4a (verification/public), MP3 (reference)</li>
</ul>

<hr />

<h2 id="synthdef-implementation">SynthDef Implementation</h2>

<h3 id="mogami-baseline-for-reference">mogami (baseline for reference)</h3>

<p>Structure:</p>
<ul>
  <li>Saw.ar(freq) * 0.7</li>
  <li>Saw.ar(freq * 2) * 0.2</li>
  <li>Saw.ar(freq * 3) * 0.1</li>
  <li>Env.perc(attack, release)</li>
  <li>Output with amp = 0.3</li>
</ul>

<p>This SynthDef uses explicit parallel oscillators for harmonic enrichment.</p>

<h3 id="wct_plain-simplified-baseline">wct_plain (simplified baseline)</h3>

<p>Structure:</p>
<ul>
  <li>Saw.ar(freq)</li>
  <li>LPF.ar(sig, freq * 4) — cutoff at 4x fundamental</li>
  <li>Env.perc(attack, release)</li>
  <li>Output with amp = 0.3</li>
</ul>

<p>This SynthDef uses a single sawtooth wave with low-pass filtering and no explicit freq * 3 oscillator component.</p>

<hr />

<h2 id="audio-format-verification">Audio Format Verification</h2>

<h3 id="observation-mp3-and-peak-preservation">Observation: MP3 and Peak Preservation</h3>

<p>WCT Week 1 used MP3 encoding. In this test, measurement of audio output showed:</p>

<table>
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>Audio Type</th>
      <th>WAV Peak</th>
      <th>MP3 Peak</th>
      <th>Difference</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <td>mogami</td>
      <td>-31.5 dB</td>
      <td>-42.1 dB</td>
      <td>~10 dB loss</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>wct_plain</td>
      <td>-16.8 dB</td>
      <td>-26.6 dB</td>
      <td>~10 dB loss</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>

<p><strong>Finding:</strong> In this test, MP3 encoding reduced the peak level of short-envelope sounds by approximately 10 dB. The exact codec-level cause is not treated as a research conclusion here.</p>

<h3 id="observation-aacm4a-and-peak-preservation">Observation: AAC/m4a and Peak Preservation</h3>

<p>Testing with AAC encoding (ffmpeg -c:a aac -q:a 3):</p>

<table>
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>Audio Type</th>
      <th>WAV Peak</th>
      <th>m4a Peak</th>
      <th>Difference</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <td>mogami</td>
      <td>-31.5 dB</td>
      <td>-31.5 dB</td>
      <td>±0.0 dB</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>wct_plain</td>
      <td>-16.8 dB</td>
      <td>-16.4 dB</td>
      <td>±0.4 dB</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>

<p><strong>Finding:</strong> AAC encoding preserved peak amplitude within negligible variation (±0.4 dB).</p>

<h3 id="file-format-decision">File Format Decision</h3>

<ul>
  <li><strong>WAV</strong>: Primary archive copy (lossless master)</li>
  <li><strong>m4a/AAC</strong>: Verification and public playback format (preserves measured peak values, efficient file size)</li>
  <li><strong>MP3</strong>: Reference only (retained for documentation of the codec behavior difference)</li>
</ul>

<p>AAC/m4a is broadly supported by modern browsers through HTML5 audio.</p>

<h2 id="implementation-notes">Implementation Notes</h2>

<h3 id="wct-week-2-as-a-verification-test">WCT Week 2 as a Verification Test</h3>

<p>The primary goals of this recording are:</p>

<ol>
  <li>
    <p><strong>NRT Pipeline Verification:</strong> Confirm that wct_plain renders without errors through the SuperCollider NRT pipeline using the same note and duration data as mogami.</p>
  </li>
  <li>
    <p><strong>Audio Format Comparison:</strong> Document the measured difference in peak preservation between MP3 and AAC encoding when rendering short-envelope percussion sounds.</p>
  </li>
  <li>
    <p><strong>Publication Framework:</strong> Verify that the Jekyll template (audio_files front matter field) can display multiple audio versions in a single composition post without disrupting existing single-audio posts.</p>
  </li>
  <li>
    <p><strong>SynthDef Baseline:</strong> wct_plain demonstrates that a simplified SynthDef can be rendered through the NRT pipeline using the same note and duration data.</p>
  </li>
</ol>

<h3 id="out-of-scope-for-this-test">Out of Scope for This Test</h3>

<p>The following are <strong>not</strong> treated as research conclusions in this recording:</p>

<ul>
  <li>Timbral quality comparison (“which sounds better”)</li>
  <li>Perceptual evaluation of SynthDef characteristics</li>
  <li>Claims about articulation clarity or harmonic content</li>
  <li>Subjective listening assessment</li>
</ul>

<p>The actual choice of production SynthDef depends on compositional intent and structural decisions made by the director, which are separate from the technical verification presented here.</p>

<hr />

<h2 id="technical-contributions">Technical Contributions</h2>

<p>This recording validates:</p>

<ol>
  <li>✓ wct_plain SynthDef renders correctly through NRT</li>
  <li>✓ mogami and wct_plain produce output from identical notes/durations</li>
  <li>✓ MP3 encoding shows measurable peak reduction (~10 dB) for short-envelope sounds</li>
  <li>✓ AAC/m4a encoding preserves peak measurements from WAV</li>
  <li>✓ Multiple audio_files can be published in Jekyll without breaking existing single-audio posts</li>
</ol>

<p><strong>English Summary</strong></p>

<p>This test composes three minimalist rhythm cells and renders them through the SuperCollider NRT (Non-Real-Time) synthesis pipeline to verify:</p>
<ul>
  <li>OSC (Open Sound Control) score generation accuracy</li>
  <li>NTP timetag fractional-second encoding (critical fix applied 2026-05-09)</li>
  <li>WAV audio output at 44.1kHz stereo</li>
  <li>MP3 compression and publication workflow</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>Duration:</strong> 4.5 seconds<br />
<strong>Structure:</strong> Cell A → Cell B → Cell C (2× repetition)<br />
<strong>Synthesis:</strong> SuperCollider NRT (scsynth) with mogami SynthDef</p>

<p><strong>Publication Format:</strong> This Week 1 post is published as an audio-only test; no score or MIDI file is provided because the primary objective is to verify the restored SuperCollider NRT audio-rendering and publication pipeline.</p>

<hr />

<h2 id="observed-limitations">Observed Limitations</h2>

<h3 id="limitation-1-mogami-harmonic-overlap">Limitation 1: mogami Harmonic Overlap</h3>

<p><strong>Observation:</strong> The third harmonic / fifth-related component (freq×3) is perceived as an overlapping tone above the fundamental pitch.</p>

<p><strong>Technical Analysis:</strong> The mogami SynthDef uses <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Saw.ar(freq*3) * 0.1</code>, which adds sawtooth harmonics at 3× the fundamental frequency. In perception, this may manifest as a tone approximately one octave + perfect-5th above the target pitch.</p>

<p><strong>Status:</strong> Documented as characteristic of mogami baseline. No intervention taken in this cycle.</p>

<p><strong>Future Candidate:</strong> A simpler baseline SynthDef, such as a sine-based wct_plain, may be tested in a later WCT. This remains a candidate for exploration, not a confirmed plan.</p>

<h3 id="limitation-2-output-level">Limitation 2: Output Level</h3>

<p><strong>Observation:</strong> Audio output requires MacBook Neo maximum volume + EarPods for adequate listening level.</p>

<p><strong>Technical Analysis:</strong> mogami SynthDef uses fixed <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">amp=0.3</code> in the envelope calculation (<code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Out.ar(0, (sig * env * amp) ! 2)</code>).</p>

<p><strong>Status:</strong> WCT Week 1 MP3 archived as-is without re-normalization. This recording serves as a baseline reference for post-redesign audio output.</p>

<p><strong>Future Candidate (Week 2+):</strong> Loudness normalization and amplitude standards may be established for future WCT recordings. These remain improvement candidates for a later cycle, not confirmed changes.</p>

<hr />

<h2 id="technical-notes">Technical Notes</h2>

<h3 id="ntp-timetag-fix-2026-05-09">NTP Timetag Fix (2026-05-09)</h3>

<p>This is the first audio output using the corrected NTP timetag fractional-second encoding. Previous NRT attempts hardcoded <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">frac=0</code>, causing all events at the same integer second to collapse into a single timestamp.</p>

<p><strong>Fix Applied:</strong></p>

<pre><code class="language-python">sec = int(time_secs)
frac_part = time_secs - sec
frac = int(frac_part * (2**32))
bundle += struct.pack('&gt;II', sec, frac)</code></pre>

<p><strong>Result:</strong> Fractional durations (0.375s, 0.125s) now correctly translate to distinct NTP timetags, enabling sub-second scheduling precision.</p>

<hr />

<h2 id="next-steps">Next Steps</h2>

<h3 id="immediate-week-2-wct">Immediate (Week 2 WCT)</h3>

<ul>
  <li>Execute next weekly composition test with modified rhythm patterns or alternative SynthDef</li>

<p>本習作は、<strong>音程遷移と奏法遷移を独立した変数として分離できるか</strong>という仮説の検証を目的とする。</p>

<p>所長（清水賢吾）の作曲意図書では、三味線の奏法（基本奏法・スクイ・ハジキ・オシ指・スリ）が「倍音構成そのものを変化させる」と記述されている。この観察を受けて田中が立てた仮説は次の通りである：</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>奏法の時系列パターンが、音程遷移から独立した知覚可能な「構造」を形成する可能性がある。</p>
</blockquote>

<p>この仮説を検証するため、音高は南部牛追い唄に由来する断片（A C D E G）に固定し、奏法のみを3段階で変化させる構成とした。</p>

<hr />

<h2 id="構成">構成</h2>

<h3 id="section-a基本奏法倍音豊富">Section A：基本奏法（倍音豊富）</h3>

<p>南部牛追い唄の特徴的な下降—上昇旋律を、2声部のヘテロフォニー的配置で提示する。声部ⅡはAの音を持続し、声部Ⅰが遅延して入る。</p>

<p>両声部とも同一の音高素材を共有するが、声部Ⅱは声部Ⅰより半拍遅れて入り、終止はほぼ同音程に収束する。これは長唄ヘテロフォニーの基本パターン（大塚拝子の記述）を簡略化したものである。</p>

<h3 id="section-bオシ指スリ倍音減衰静的">Section B：オシ指・スリ（倍音減衰・静的）</h3>

<p>同一の音高素材を反復するが、ダイナミクスを大幅に絞り（pp〜pppp）、スリ奏法的な「倍音の剥落」を表現する。</p>

<p>声部Ⅱはさらに疎となり、重要な音程のみを選択的に抽出する形式となる。音程は変わらないが、音響密度が著しく低下することで、<strong>音量の変化ではなく音色の消滅</strong>として知覚されることを意図している。</p>

<h3 id="section-cハジキ主体高域強調">Section C：ハジキ主体（高域強調）</h3>

<p>ハジキ奏法の「弦の押さえ付近演奏→高域倍音強調」を模倣するため、アクセント（-&gt;）を全音符に付与し、スタッカート気味の発音を指定する。</p>

<p>音高素材は A〜C5 に拡張し、Section A・Bよりやや広い音域を使用する。これは高域倍音の強調を音域の広がりでアナログ的に表現する試みである。</p>

<hr />

<h2 id="観察と仮説">観察と仮説</h2>

<p>本習作を通じて浮かんだ観察を記録する：</p>

<p><strong>観察1</strong>：音程が固定されていても、ダイナミクスと音符密度の変化（Section A→B）は明確に「別の音楽」として知覚される。これは「音色組織の変化が構造の変化として機能する」という仮説に一定の支持を与える。</p>

<p><strong>観察2</strong>：Section C のアクセント付き8分音符は、音程の同一性にもかかわらず Section A の同じ音程素材と全く異なる性格を帯びる。ハジキ的な発音模倣が成功しているとすれば、音程ではなく「発音の質」が構造的情報を担っていることになる。</p>

<p><strong>未解決</strong>：本習作はMIDI音源（FluidSynth）による変換であり、奏法の実際の倍音差は再現されていない。三味線の実音源または SuperCollider による倍音制御モデルを使用することで、仮説の音響的検証が初めて可能になる。これは次の習作課題である。</p>

<hr />

<h2 id="次のステップ">次のステップ</h2>

<ol>
  <li><strong>SuperCollider によるリメイク</strong>：同一楽譜素材に対して、奏法別 SynthDef（基本/ハジキ/オシ指）を設計し、実際の倍音差を付与した版を作成する。</li>
  <li><strong>比較聴取実験</strong>（将来）：音程固定・奏法変化版と、奏法固定・音程変化版を比較して、どちらの変化がより強い「構造感」を生むかを検討する。</li>

<p>東北民謡「最上川舟歌」の基本モティーフを対象に、<strong>モノフォニー旋律の構造的な不変性と変形規則の同一性</strong>を検証する実験作品です。</p>

<p>西洋音楽理論の「主音」や「音階」といった概念を前提とせず、純粋に<strong>音高列と音価列の系列</strong>として旋律を記述し、複数の旋律にまたがって保存される<strong>不変な核</strong>と、その<strong>変形の文法</strong>を同一の装置で説明することを目指します。</p>

<h2 id="方法論">方法論</h2>

<h3 id="対象曲">対象曲</h3>
<ul>
  <li><strong>原型</strong>：最上川舟歌の基本フレーズ（5音陽音階：C D E G A）</li>
  <li><strong>形態</strong>：3声ポリフォニック・バリエーション（楽譜参照）</li>
</ul>

<h3 id="実験設計">実験設計</h3>

<p><strong>Variation A（音高系列の転置）</strong></p>
<ul>
  <li>音高系列を異なるピッチで再現</li>
  <li>音価（リズム）は原型を保持</li>
  <li>核の構成要素が変わっても、内部関係が保存されるか検証</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>Variation B（音価系列の変形）</strong></p>
<ul>
  <li>音価（リズム）パターンを変形</li>
  <li>音高の核となる3音（C E G）は保持</li>
  <li>不規則なリズム構造のうち、どの要素が「核」として機能するか検証</li>
</ul>

<h2 id="聴覚的特性">聴覚的特性</h2>

<p>このバリエーション作成により、以下の音響的質問に答える材料が得られます：</p>
<ul>
  <li>「核」として認識されるのは、相対的な音高関係か、絶対的なピッチか</li>
  <li>リズムの不規則性（日本民謡特有の「ゆらぎ」）は、変形プロセスでどう保存されるか</li>
  <li>ヘテロフォニー的な重複は、聴き手に「同じ旋律の変形」として知覚されるか</li>
</ul>
