As AI systems increasingly become embedded in interactive and im-mersive artistic environments, artists and technologists are discovering new opportunities to engage with their interpretive and autonomous capacities as creative…
While generative models for music composition are increasingly capable, their adoption by musicians is hindered by text-prompting, an asynchronous workflow disconnected from the embodied, responsive nature of instrumental performance. To…
This article presents a five-year collaboration situated at the intersection of Art practice and Scientific research in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). At the core of our collaborative work is a hybrid, Art and Science methodology that…
Randomness plays a pivotal yet paradoxical role in computational music creativity: it can spark novelty, but unchecked chance risks incoherence. This paper presents a thematic review of contemporary AI music systems, examining how designers…
Theatrical improvisation (impro or improv) is a demanding form of live, collaborative performance. Improv is a humorous and playful artform built on an open-ended narrative structure which simultaneously celebrates effort and failure. It is…
Making music with other people is a social activity as well as an artistic one. Music therapists take advantage of the social aspects of music to obtain benefits for the patients, interacting with them musically, but this activity requires…
In the realm of music AI, arranging rich and structured multi-track accompaniments from a simple lead sheet presents significant challenges. Such challenges include maintaining track cohesion, ensuring long-term coherence, and optimizing…
Musical professionals who produce material for non-musical stakeholders often face communication challenges in the early ideation stage. Expressing musical ideas can be difficult, especially when domain-specific vocabulary is lacking. This…
Recent advances in generative artificial intelligence (AI) have created models capable of high-quality musical content generation. However, little consideration is given to how to use these models for real-time or cooperative jamming…
It has been increasingly recognized that effective human-AI co-creation requires more than prompts and results, but an environment with empowering structures that facilitate exploration, planning, iteration, as well as control and…
Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and its sub-branch machine learning (ML) promise machines that go beyond the boundaries of automation and behave autonomously. Applications of these machines in creative practices such as…
The quality of outputs produced by deep generative models for music have seen a dramatic improvement in the last few years. However, most deep learning models perform in "offline" mode, with few restrictions on the processing time.…
With the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), there has been increasing interest in human-AI co-creation in a variety of artistic domains including music as AI-driven systems are frequently able to generate human-competitive artifacts.…
In this paper, we introduce an extension of our presented cognitive-based emotion model [27][28]and [30], where we enhance our knowledge-based emotion unit of the architecture by embedding a fuzzy rule-based system to it. The model utilizes…
This paper presents a study on the use of a real-time music-to-image system as a mechanism to support and inspire musicians during their creative process. The system takes MIDI messages from a keyboard as input which are then interpreted…
Capturing intricate and subtle variations in human expressiveness in music performance using computational approaches is challenging. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for reconstructing human expressiveness in piano performance…
Recent advances in generative AI for music have achieved remarkable fidelity and stylistic diversity, yet these systems often fail to align with nuanced human preferences due to the specific loss functions they use. This paper advocates for…
This performance presents a duet between two intelligent musical instruments, S\`u (to trace back; to go upstream) and Agentier (playing on agentic clavier), and their human performers, connected through feedback loops. Rather than treating…
This paper presents an integrative review and experimental validation of artificial intelligence (AI) agents applied to music analysis and education. We synthesize the historical evolution from rule-based models to contemporary approaches…
In exploring the simulation of human rhythmic perception and synchronization capabilities, this study introduces a computational model inspired by the physical and biological processes underlying rhythm processing. Utilizing a reservoir…
