II CONCEPT SPACES II.5 (W Feb 18) Why
encyclopedic concept spaces in music?
2

• Conclusions from rhythmic and motivic theories
  concerning conceptual strategies
• precision can be adequate!
• need iterative sets of sets of ... (Graeser!)
• need very different basic formats (contour
  entries)
• need open architecture of concepts according to
  variable theoretical approaches (contour types,
  selection of different motif collections, etc.)
• need possibilities to reuse calculation methods
  (Euclidean length, etc.)

Want to study examples and requirements for
comprehensive conceptualization (-gt Rubato
