...composition over the summer. “It makes me happy that I’m getting to collaborate outside of the musical world.” Koch and Mendez’s “Rêves/Cauchemars” explores the interaction between the musicians and the dancers. “I find watching musicians’ play to be very interesting movement,” Koch says. “I was interested in blurring the lines between where the music starts and where the dance starts.” To highlight the interplay between them...

...that song or artist’s catalogue. “[Pandora] replicates your best friend, but with almost perfect knowledge of an enormous catalogue of music,” Westergren said at the talk, which was sponsored by the Berkman Center for Internet and Society. A team of musicians measure and score each song using nearly 400 factors, which frame them in what Westergren calls the “musical double helix.” Once a user inputs a given song or artist, a mathematical algorithm creates a playlist that orders songs based on their similarity. Pandora launched...
