    Resilience and co-production: Conserving modern housing in Chile
    (Taylor and Francis, 2021) Torrent H.
    © of the edition, docomomo International © of the images, their authors and © of the texts, their authors.Modern mass housing complexes have been incorporated to a process of valorization that aims for its permanence. For some time now, the inhabitants of these housing complexes have requested their declaration as monuments to protect them against the threat of real estate business. In most cases - if not all of them - the declaration came at the request of the community, organized with the objective of protecting them in face of the possibility of their disappearance. The status of zona típica allows only keeping the housing complexes safe from the speculative process of urban land. Instead, the organization of residents within the projects has proved successful in obtaining help to actively preserve not only the buildings but also their public spaces with strategies of adaptive re-use of the land, as did the project of restoration of the elevated streets and bridges of Villa Frei, or the “Quiero mi Barrio” plan applied in Villa Portales and the community organization to improve the public spaces of Lastarria and Ex-Estadio housing in Arica. This paper aims to review the architectural and urban values of the complexes and the processes between different actors, including the community and the public realm, sharing resources and power during the last ten years, strategies of co-production, conservation and resilience have been able to achieve, preserve and value the legacy of modern housing architecture in Chile during the last ten years.

    Fuzzy logic control tool kit: Real-time fuzzy control for Max/MSP and Pd
    (2006) Cádiz Cádiz, Rodrigo Fernando; Kendall, Gary S.
    In computer music, it is often the case that the compositional act and the parametric control of the underlying synthesis al-gorithms are not separable from each other. In these situa-tions, composition is completely intertwined with and depen-dent on the control of the synthesis parameters. The compo-sitional control of computer music by fuzzy logic is proposed here. This approach provides a simple, intuitive and flexible control of the compositional process that can be utilized in many different situations. Compositional control is achieved by the fuzzification of the relevant internal synthesis parame-ters and the parallel computation of several simple fuzzy IF-THEN rules of inference specified by the composer. The pro-posed approach has been implemented computationally as a package called FLCTK (Fuzzy Logic Control Tool Kit) in the form of external objects for the widely used real-time compo-sitional environments Max/MSP and Pd. As a demonstration of the wide range of situations in which this approach could be used, an example of parametric fuzzy control of granular synthesis is provided.

    Performance control of a &flute physical model using fuzzy logic
    (2007) Cádiz Cádiz, Rodrigo Fernando; De La Cuadra Banderas, Patricio; Fabre, Benoît; Montgermont, Nicolas
    A simple model aimed to emulate the control exerted by a flautist over selected parameters while exciting the flute is proposed. Using a fuzzy logic based control system, a mu-sically meaningful mapping between performance vari-ables and physical model parameters is obtained. The real time implementation in Pd (Pure data) environment shows an adequate matching between the outputs of the fuzzy system and previous experimental data.

    OSC-NETLOGO: A tool for exploring the sonification of complex systems using NetLogo
    (2012) Cádiz Cádiz, Rodrigo Fernando; Colasso, Marco
    In this article, we introduce OSC-NETLOGO, a tool that allows the creation of sonic phenomena by taking advantage of NetLogo’s power for designing and building models of complex systems. NetLogo is a multi-agent programming language and modeling environment for simulating natural and social phenomena. It is particularly well suited for modeling complex systems that evolve dynamically over time. We provide two examples taken from NetLogo’s library of models. These examples provide evidence for the capabilities and potential of NetLogo as a sound synthesis tool. We hope that this tool could be of aid in future efforts of creating new complex sounds and interesting musical material.

    Kara: A BCI approach to composition
    (National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 2014) Cádiz Cádiz, Rodrigo Fernando; De La Cuadra Banderas, Patricio
    Kara is a greek word that could be translated as head. In the Kara series of pieces, the musicians wear braincomputer interfaces (BCI) in order to capture their EEG waves while performing. The information from these waves is sent to a computer, where it is processed in order to generate a real-time score, computer generated sounds and a visual display of the data. A closed-loop is formed between the musicians mental activity and the music they generate. As they perform the real-time score generated by their EEG waves, more mental activity is generated, which in turn generates the next portion of the score, and so on. This loop continues for the whole piece, althoughthe score generation algorithms vary along different sections of the musical discourse. This article is presented for the piece+paper modality.
