Ferin Martino: A Small Piano Algorithm and Its Lessons on Creativity, Interaction, and Expression
Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Interactive Digital Entertainment(2021)
摘要
The process of developing and making music with Ferin Martino, a piano-playing software algorithm has opened up a number of inquiries surrounding modern performance and creativity. Although it is relatively simple program, it is capable of much unique, expressive output that maintains a consistent style. Instead of constructing musical passages note by note, its musical character arises from its structure, independent of content. Recombination of previously-played material ensures that the first randomly generated notes end up yielding musically and stylistically coherent passages without compromising the variety of musical material produced. A flow of pseudorandom numbers is dis- turbed by motion in front of a camera, making the music responsive to its surroundings. Human-machine collaboration with this system has been effective in a variety of applications ranging from background music to computer-aided composition and live performance. A brief explanation of the algorithm is followed by ex- plorations of its resulting character; strengths and challenges; and perspectives it inspires on the relationships between humans and machines and on twenty-first century musicianship.
