Original Kurzfassung:
We report on the progress of GiantSteps, an EU-funded
project involving institutions from academia, practition-
ers, and industrial partners with the goal of developing
new concepts for intelligent and collaborative interfaces
for music production and performance. At the core of the
project is an iterative, user-centric research approach to
music information retrieval (MIR) and human computer
interaction (HCI) that is designed to allow us to accom-
plish three main targets, namely (1) the development of in-
telligent musical expert agents to support and inspire mu-
sic makers, (2) more intuitive and collaborative interfaces,
and (3) low-complexity methods addressing low-cost de-
vices to enable affordable and accessible production tools
and apps. In this paper, we report on the main findings and
achievements of the project?s first two years.
