Happy Sunday, good day for live-generated visual art, coded masterpieces, and AI-driven explorations! Join us for the next 12 hours or so, or just drop by.
This latest #MIDI mangling experiment is actually pretty dope. I'm getting point estimates of note occurrence probability in the mario theme song, and then filtering the midi file like a low or high pass filter, except the filter deletes notes based on their probability. I wish I had this in eurorack. But, #rstats will do for now. #generativemusic#rstatsmusic
Ended up making quite a bit of progress on {midiblender}, which will be an experimental generative music R package, mostly for probabilistic midi mangling. Testing it out on my blog, not quite ready to share the code on github, but coming soon. #rstats#rstatsmusic#midi#generativemusic
Figured out how to go from midi bars to a matrix representation and back! Opens up lots of possibilities. Here I do some probabilistic mario music based on note x time probabilities calculated from the matrix representation. #midi#rstats#generativemusic#rstatsmusic#mario
Generative "music" for #genuary31 features the Langton's Ant from my "Grow a seed" #GenerativeArt continuously modifying a drum pattern sent as #MIDI notes to the Korg Volca Beats. The wobbly functions from another previous #genuary prompt control the pitch of arpeggiated tones synthesized using the #Processing Sound library which I never used before.
Finished my second #genuary ! I try to make something real and good for every prompt. Some always succeed far better than others. I learn a lot and am left with many threads to pick up and explore. Have really enjoyed seeing everyone's work this genuary, nice job all! Here's a little generative goodbye song, sung by simplex noise tuned to a minor key.

I was feeling pretty burnt out on #jamuary so I decided to try something totally new to me today... generative music. After watching a great tutorial (linked in the soundcloud description) I made this. It's basic but I'm excited to experiment more with #GenerativeMusic soon.
Revisited some older music software I made in #puredata and #unity3d. I swore it'd be the last time I'd use Unity. We'll see.
It was very fun to explore this work and see how much effort I'd put in. I still think it's a fun way to explore #generativemusic https://youtu.be/21fib66GrM0
