  • Akiko Hatakeyama - Storytelling, memories... real-time computer-based interactivity

    Date: 
    Fri, 05/04/2018 - 3:00pm - 4:30pm
    Location: 
    CCRMA Seminar Room
    Event Type: 
    Guest Lecture
    Akiko Hatakeyama is a composer/performer of electroacoustic music and intermedia. She explores the boundaries between written music, improvisation, electronics, real-time computer-based interactivity, and visual media. Storytelling, memories, and nature play an important role in Akiko's work, and she most often finds beauty in simplicity.  Akiko's practice focuses on realizing her ideas of relations between the body and mind into intermedia composition, often in conjunction with building customized instruments/interfaces. It is a form of nonverbal communication with her inner self and with the environment, including the audience. By somatically actuating perceptions with sound, light, and haptic objects, her ideas of relations between the body and mind become embraceable.

  • Demixing and Remixing Music with Deep Learning

    Date: 
    Fri, 11/10/2017 - 5:00pm - 6:20pm
    Event Type: 
    Guest Lecture
    Abstract: In 2015 Alejandro Koretzky created tuneSplit with the goal of democratizing music creation and remixing while introducing the concept of “Semantic Equalization” in music. By implementing an end-to-end pipeline that performs audio source separation in real time, commercial stereo music can be deconstructed into different instruments and vocals, allowing users to personalize the listening experience and unlocking the possibilities for remixing using parts of existing stereo mixes. Initial versions of the underlying algorithms were based on a proprietary adaptive version of Non-negative Matrix Factorization.

  • Generative Models for Music and Art

    Date: 
    Thu, 10/26/2017 - 6:00pm - 7:20pm
    Location: 
    CCRMA Classroom [Knoll 217]
    Event Type: 
    Guest Lecture

    Abstract: Doug Eck will discuss Magenta, a Google Brain project investigating music and art generation using deep learning and reinforcement learning. The goals of Magenta and how it fits into the general trend of AI moving into our daily lives will be described. One crucial question is: Where does AI and Machine Learning fit in the creative process? The speaker argues that generative models are the core tools to import from machine learning, and introduces concepts from generative models such as autoencoders, recurrent neural networks, variational methods, generative adversarial networks (GANs) and different sampling methods.
