Generating Music from Literature

Abstract

We present a system, TransProse, that automatically generates musical pieces from text.TransProse uses known relations between elements of music such as tempo and scale, and the emotions they evoke.Further, it uses a novel mechanism to determine sequences of notes that capture the emotional activity in text.The work has applications in information visualization, in creating audio-visual e-books, and in developing music apps.
