[Academic] [Paid] Looking for composers to join my research

Hi! I have a research project going on at Carnegie Mellon University.

Please complete this short Recruitment Form (about 2–3 minutes) to be a part of the study. To verify the authenticity of this research or for further questions, please feel free to reach out to the study co-ordinator at kkanav@andrew.cmu.edu.

I am looking for composers who would, as part of the study, write songs as they would have naturally. You would be given free access to a paid music theory-aware songwriting sketchpad and would simply compose for 2 weeks - whatever you may like and whenever you are free. In return, we get to analyze the songs you have composed. As it is a phd research project, with the aim of writing an open-access research paper, we would not claim ownership of your content. You remain the owner of the work you produce.

I want to categorically mention (also in the consent form) that we'll not be using the data to train an AI/ ML model. Neither is it for product testing. We're an educational institution and are only interested in seeing how musicians interact with tools and features in a theory-aware songwriting sketchpad. The behavioral aspect of it will make it a publishable research (and I need that for my dissertation).

Benefits are 30 usd + free access to the composition tool. If you think it does not match your hourly rate, I would like to again remind you that it is not a composition assignment. Basically, you get paid for what you usually do! You compose the songs you like (for yourself or for your clients, not even for us). We just get to analyze your data on a voluntary basis.

Looking for composers to join my research

Hi! I have a research project going on at CMU. I am looking for composers who just need to write songs as they would have naturally written. You would be given free access to a paid online music composition tool (pretty famous one) and would simply compose for 2 weeks. Compose whatever you may like and whenever you are free. In return, we get to see the songs you have composed (but your data would remain de-identified and will be deleted after the study as per university guidelines). So, you remain the owner of the work you produce.

Benefits are upto 50 usd + free access to the composition tool. If you think it does not match your hourly rate, I would like to again remind you that it is not a composition assignment.
