Brainwave Project to Help Patients with Disorders of Consciousness
Qi Chen (CN)
In this project, I hope to provide an approach to help people who are in a minimally conscious state (MCS) and have partial preservation of conscious awareness by using wearable devices to detect real-time brain waves and generate images to help doctors and families understand the different brain responses to different audiovisual inputs.
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.
Luci, sin nombre y sin memoria
José Manuel Berenguer (ES)
Luci reproduces the functioning of a self-organizing system inspired by the behavior of fireflies in south-east Asian mangrove swamps. It has been observed that when the male launches an intermittent signal the female responds with a similar signal. Luci is, in the final instance, an allusion to the irreversibility of nature and the absolute security of death.
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?
How can we make more liveable cities?
300.000 Km/s (ES)
SAT 7.9. | 10:00 – 11:00 Arising from the experience of S+T+ARTS Prize winning project- Ciutat Vella's land-use plan, this workshop is open to a wide range of urban agents with different scientific, artistic, political and technical backgrounds to reflect on several cutting-edge questions in European cities.
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.
GET.Inspired
FRI 6.9. | 13:00 – 14:30 The power of individual technology groups and their exclusive role in shaping the future is increasingly subject to criticism. We are called upon to critically question and actively participate, instead of remaining passive victims of digital change. People and companies show how, by thinking against all rules, new paths can be taken outside the comfort zone.
The self-reference, Three AI composed Canons
Ali Nikrang (AT)
A musical dialog between the installation Harmonic Bridge by O+A (Bruce Odland/Sam Auinger) and the 4th movement of Anton Bruckner’s First Symphony
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.
