5. Skills transmission / Musical e-learning
 Knowledge management
 Skills particularities: recipe and cooking
 Instrumental music as an example

6. Notation as explicit dead knowledge

7. Live interpretations as data ressources

8. Online/Offline digital music ecosystem
 Methods: CDs with scores
 CDRoms & DVDs for learning
 Software off & on / line
 Youtube
 …

9. Simplexity of Creativity: e-service
Imagine: your guitar resting perfectly on the thigh, you listen to “Anonymous
Romance” while watching the hands of the teacher on the television.
Close-ups, slow motion, back-ups, replays, everything is possible while
you can learn to play along with the teacher. In order to assist you, sheet
music lights up each note as it is being played: all of this on full screen,
high-definition video and natural stereo sound! In addition, the teacher’s
advice is associated with the notes and the measures in play, in the form
of visual and verbal commentary.

10. Proposed Approach
 Traditional pedagogical path Teacher corrects
mistakes, gives
advices
No
Student learns Technical
Teacher suggests
Piece presentation progressively at aspects
a new piece
home solved?
Yes
Play the piece Focus on
in public Interpretation

11. How to do it ?
 “Capture” and digitize information streams
from the traditional lesson
 Render them through a multimedia system
 Enhance reality when needed
 Provide user-friendly communication tools

16. Off/line System
 Piece based Interactive DVD
 Multi-angle
 Animated score
 Auto & custom loop
 Slow motion
 Contextual pedagogical advices
⇒ Optimal Teachers to Learners tool
