Analyzing Drumming Technique with Trajectory Optimization
Owen Douglas Pearl
Abstract:Percussion began as a global phenomenon over seven thousand years ago and has continued to develop and shape human culture to this day. While drumming techniques have been qualitatively optimized in highly competitive environments like international orchestral, jazz, and marching arts competitions, little quantitative optimization has been performed to maximize technique efficiency and few tools currently exist to make a thorough quantitative analysis possible. Here, I demonstrate how trajectory optimization c… Show more
