AIxMusic Workshops (Freitag)
Recommenders and Intelligent Tools in Music Creation: Why, Why Not, and How?
Christine Bauer (AT), Peter Knees (AT), Richard Vogl (AT), Hansi Raber (AT)
This workshop will highlight the role of Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning-supported composition, and Recommender Systems in the process of music creation. We discuss their reception and prevalent image among professional music producers and creators, including the potential threats these technologies pose to their artistic originality. We contrast this view by emphasizing the power of AI-technology for a democratization of music making, by lowering the entrance barrier of music creation.
Digital Musical Interactions
Koray Tahiroğlu (Fl/TR)
Today digital technologies and advanced computational features, such as machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) tools, are shaping our relationship with music as well as enabling new possibilities of utilising new musical instruments and interfaces. In this workshop, we question, what does our relationship with music and musical instruments look like today?
Computer Music Design and Research – IRCAM Workshop
Jérôme Nika (FR), Daniele Ghisi (IT)
Computer music designer, musician, and researcher Jérôme Nika (FR) will present the generative agents / software instruments DYCI2 that he develops in collaboration with Ircam, and in interaction with expert improvisers. These agents offer a continuum of strategies going from pure autonomy to meta-composition thanks to an abstract “scenario” structure.
The Art of Intelligent Interruption and Augmented Relationships
Harry Yeff (UK) & Domhnaill Hernon (IR), Nokia Bell Labs
Developing disruptive research for the next phase of human existence. What are the narratives that allow the world to embrace Augmented Intelligence and do artists offer an answer? Harry Yeff walks us through his portfolio of interactive installation, creative use of machine learning and vocal performance to explore the concept of intelligent interruption and augmented relationships.
