      abstract = {This book discusses the principles, methodologies, and  challenges of robotic musicianship through an in-depth  review of the work conducted at the Georgia Tech Center for  Music Technology (GTCMT), where the concept was first  developed. Robotic musicianship is a relatively new  research field that focuses on the design and development  of intelligent music-making machines. The motivation behind  the field is to develop robots that not only generate  music, but also collaborate with humans by listening and  responding in an expressive and creative manner. This  combination of human and machine creativity has the  potential to surprise and inspire us to play, listen,  compose, and think about music in new ways. The book  provides an in-depth view of the robotic platforms designed  at the GTCMT Robotic Musicianship Group, including the  improvisational robotic percussionists Haile and Shimon,  the personal robotic companion Shimi, and a number of  wearable robots, such as the Robotic Drumming Prosthesis,  The Third Drumming Arm, and the Skywalker Piano Hand. The  book discusses numerous research studies based on these  platforms in the context of five main principles: Listen  like a Human, Play Like a Machine, Be Social, Watch and  Learn, and Wear It. },
