S&H CURRENT PROJECT · INTERACTIVE MUSIC EXPERIMENT
CrossMood
Music Emotion Recognition Across Cultures
Do listeners in different places hear the same emotion in the same song? CrossMood lets you explore that question through an interactive music experience.
TRY THE INTERACTIVE DEMOTHE EXPERIENCE
One song. More than one way of hearing.
CrossMood makes a research question tangible. Bring a piece of music to the demo and compare how its emotional character is represented from different listener perspectives. The experience is an invitation to notice differences and ask better questions—not a verdict on how any person feels.
Bring a track
Start with music you are curious about and try it in the interactive demo.
See different readings
Explore how the displayed emotion profile changes between listener perspectives.
Question the result
Consider what an AI reading can reveal—and what it cannot tell you about a listener.
PROJECT & PUBLICATION
One inquiry, two ways to explore it.
