AI Musicking

performance by Umut Eldem, Chiara Percivati and Adilia Yip

Thursday 17 October 2024, 18:00-18:30
Lange Zaal, Academy

Is musical AI a tool, a performer or a mirror? The widespread use of AI is changing our relationship with how we interact with technology in artistic expression. Most popular generative AI tools are based on models trained with an enormous amount of data, reflecting large-scale biases and tendencies. Smaller AI models trained with a specific source of data, however, can generate specialised outputs, minimising the impact of irrelevant biases and better aligning with niche requirements or specific tasks. 

Over the last year, researchers from the research group CREATIE of the Royal Conservatoire Antwerp have been training generative AI models based on their musical practices. The resulting algorithms generate sounds and musical phrases in real time that shadow the sound world of the research group. In this performance, musicians from the research group CREATIE explore the implications of placing musical AI on the stage by co-creating with AI as a creative agent.
