Abstract
Chaotic sound is researched in the field of Artificial Life as one of the interactive art generation system. It is possible to create an image and a music generated by computer with the diversity and complexity exceeding the anticipation of human. However, playing the corresponding sounds of a simple value generated by chaos is expected to create the discord of only making a noise. In this research, we propose a method of using a part of musical factors to be felt more natural music based on the sound generated by using network of chaotic elements controlled both a chaotic behavior and a whole synchronism. In this system, the musical note, duration and volume are decided by Global Coupled Map (GCM), and the additional music factors such as a track, a tonality, a rest, a tempo, an echo, and a timbre are applied. We constructed the Interactive Chaotic Amusement System (ICAS) by applying this method and also report results of the kansei evaluation carried out to confirm the effectiveness of comfortable feeling for making sound by this system.
