Fire Music

Computer programmes represent a gradual creation of an expert system which simulates artificial intelligence in a possible imitation of man's creation in music. In the global algorithm there are three correlated levels: 1. cosmosophic concept by Ž. Todorović (applied mathematics testing the noumenal word) as the control part of the programme participates in the coding of sound on the level of structuring reality of higher order; 2. processing of data subjected to total serialization, branching into modules of »frozen sound images from the past« (simulation of the modal system, tonal system or a style, for instance, Baroque); 3. realization of output on the level of phenomena: the choice of sound generators and possible mixtures, the effect on vital points of electronically generated sound, etc. This two recording of »Music of Cosmic Models« Saturnalias and Fire Music was made in Electronic Studio of Radio Belgrade in 1988-1989.

The Relationship between Western and Thai Music Objectives in the Undergraduate Music Programs of Selected Thai Universities and Colleges

The purpose of the study was to investigate the relationship between Western and Thai music objectives in the undergraduate music programs of selected Thai universities and colleges. The data were collected from two sources: (1) an investigation of university music catalogs and syllabi for potential conflict areas in Western and Thai music objectives, and (2) questionnaire responses from university music teachers regarding their opinions about those potential conflict areas found from reviewing catalogs and syllabi. The dissertation is organized into six chapters: the introduction in Chapter I; the synthesis of related literature and background information regarding music study in higher education in Thailand in Chapter II; the design of the study in Chapter III; the comparisons of required music programs of six Thai universities in Chapter IV; the analysis of questionnaire data in Chapter V; and the summary, conclusions, discussions, and recommendations in Chapter VI.
