about

Music for human improviser with computer improviser. This album is a duet between myself and a computer; the computer performs with an audio-corpus-based AI improviser of my own design. The software improviser listens and learns by analyzing the incoming sound and then improvises music based on what it has heard. This process can be heard in the music as each track begins with a solo that teaches the improviser how to be musical.

The solo electric guitar is in a different just intonation tuning for each track. The progression from track to track through different tunings and the tonal centers that they suggest represents movement through harmonic space by closely related just intervals.

The "Scuffed Computer Improviser" is rough around the edges, the imperfection and fuzziness of the AI system is a feature of the software, designed to push me while improvising like a partner.

After having to endure a full day at work with someone else's 1980s "Punk" music on all day, listening to this album is what makes me feel normal again. Highly recommended to realign your whatevers. jwilliamkay
