I think I’ve settled on a tuning system for my Bionic Ear Institute piece<\/a>. It’s a tricky thing. I’m trying to build up pitches based on overtones of a fundamental frequency. Each electrode in a cochlear implant is designed to respond to only a certain bandwidth of frequencies. The range of bandwidths used mean that certain parts of the scale will be received and interpreted differently, depending on which octave you play in. <\/p>\n

Luckily, Robin Fox<\/a> has sent me an implant simulator, which I am now using to test out different harmonies and combinations. Of course, the interaction of overtones with the cochlear implant becomes more complex still when differentiating between different instrumental timbres.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
