Overview

Rap Rock 'N Roll was an interactive music system created by Paramount Interactive in 1993. Here is what it looked/functioned like running inside of a Windows 7 virtual machine with awful audio latency and glitches:

A Term 2022 Project

Overview

The objective of this prohect is to recreate this interactive application so that it can run inside of a browser.


Guiding Questions:

  • What kind of pressure inside of the guitar needs to be alleviated in order for air to flow through the body most efficiently?
  • Is there a perfect size soundport where by the instrument's voice becomes louder in certain frequencies than others?
  • What happens when the soundport is too small or too large?
  • How is the soundport size determined on other instruments? (Martin, Takamine, Taylor, etc.)

Goals

The goal of this project is to 1) between the size/shape of an instrument's body with the size/shape/location of the instrument's soundport 2) through a document or ideally an interactive or simulated element (webpage, MatLab or Ansys file, spreedsheet, etc.), so that when the dimensions for an instrument body are specified the appropriate-sized soundport is produced.
