Research on sound clips


Hello, my name is Aram Bakir and I am studying Information Science at Utrecht University. For my thesis I'm doing research on 'music thumbnailing'. In this context, a 'thumbnail' is a music clip of 10 seconds long, which should be representative of the entire song.

In order to conduct this research, I need people to fill out my survey. You will be given a choice of a list of 10 songs. Then, for each song chosen, you will listen to two 10-second snippets and indicate how representative you think this snippet is of the entire song. Per song this will take about 1 minute, so filling out this survey will take up to 10 minutes, but it can also take 2 minutes if you only pick 2 songs.

By completing my survey you have a chance of winning a bol.com voucher of no less than 20 euros! You can fill out my survey using the link below: Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
