In conventional interfaces, musical elements are scattered over the sequencers and are thus visually unperceivable by the user. The semantics of music can be employed to put the elements in a coherent order, which would better assist the user at maintaining the intricate materials. Stepping further into the rhythmic part of music, this thesis will demonstrate a disk-based interface that helps the user create patterns easier.enDISCO: Disk-based Interface for Semantic CompositionText/Conference Paper
