Experimental: Bach x AI

  • When music meets AI, magical things can happen - and by that we don't just mean the Bösendorfer grand piano that plays by itself as if enchanted.
    Wanna find out how AI can generate music? Ars Electronica Futurelab Key Researcher & Artist Ali Nikrang, talks about it in our video here: • Inside Futurelab: Rice...
    With MuseNet, OpenAI has created a deep neural network that can create musical compositions with various instruments. But it does not compose like a human would: it tries to find out what “building block” should best be used next in a composition after being trained with hundreds of thousands of MIDI files. From this pool of data, the artificial intelligence decides for itself what fits best. Combined with the self-playing capabilities of the Bösendorfer 290 Imperial CEUS computer grand these compositions - like this newly composed piece in the style of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach - create an eerie and magical experiment in humanity's relationship to art and performance.

    This composition doesn't sound like Bach but rather a mix of baroque and Beethoven. The problem with AI is that the computer always blends different styles to create something average, even if it doesn't make sense regarding the History of Art.

      It certainly helps when it is played by a human. But I think that you hear the un-human quality even better then. AI-lovers underestimate human intelligence. Composing is not taking the average of what alreay exists, as AI does. It is inventing, creating emotions, spheres, far beyond algorithms...

    I think the power of ai in art and music is to make the general feel or effect of what you want
    It doesn't compare to bach's genuis writing and it probably never will, but if you have a movie for example and you music for the backround it can create a good enough result
    We shouldn't be scared of it or hate on the ai it's a tool to make our lives better :)

      Artificial intelligence will never be able to fill this gap. Consider that the difference can also be heard when someone else finished Mozart's Requiem. Only humans can fill music with soul. Artificial intelligence will never be able to do this, and it should not be forced to do so.

      ​@@onlinecomposerwhy will it never be able? Of course it will and it will compose even better than humans. AI has no limits, as our limited brain has. AI is just starting. In a few years you wont be able to say if a performance on the piano is human or robotic, and the same with composing. Its the Touring test.

    • @onlinecomposer

      @@alindmay Because AI feeds on human creations and does not perfectly imitate them either. Maybe he will imitate it perfectly later, but it means nothing if we can't tell whether something is made by a living person or a machine. What is it good for? The author is connected to a piece of music, the two are inseparable. The author of a piece of music cannot be a machine, it is considered a completely worthless work. A piece of music has value only if it is produced by a person.
      And whose will be the glory after such a finished work? Does the person who programmed the AI belong to a programmer, or will the AI have a stage name and people applaud as a phantom or commemorate the composer it imitated? To me, this is completely unclear. I think so, I'm not alone. Of course, I appreciate the effort, but for me, the work presented here would only have value if it had been created by one person.
      From a certain point of view, for example, my music doesn't even come close to the work presented here, but what I've created is completely me and reflects my personality.

      @@onlinecomposer oh, todays AI is like a baby, just being fed . Soon it will grow and be better than us. We will see this within 10 years. See the Tesla car driving software. Soon the automatic driving will be safer and better than human driving.
      Regarding the value of art... I listen to the music in radio and have no idea about the artist and fully enjoy it. If something is good art, its just good. Who cares about the author? Do you ask for the cooks name when you enjoy food in a restaurant?

    • @onlinecomposer

      @@alindmay Since AI was created by humans, humans will limit it. People will not allow him to be better than him and will not fulfill the ideas we have about him now. This is similar to the idea of a paperless office 30 years ago. It didn't happen though. Still need that whining paper. In the case of AI, a baby will still be a baby 100 years from now. We'll see, yes.
      I don't have a driver's license, but I want to learn to drive and I will definitely not buy a car that automatically drives for me. The joy of driving is what I need. Listening to quality music begins when I first know the author, or if I don't, I can look up who it is. This is even the case on the radio. A lot of people are interested in the author. Listening to music is not like eating food. Yes, if I eat in a high-quality restaurant, where I eat quality food, I can certainly ask the name of the chef and they will tell me who it was. Of course, this is irrelevant in worthless fast food restaurants.
      But coming back to music, the name of the author and the name of the performer are also very important in concerts, in live music. I can't imagine a live musician performing a piece scored by AI. Or an AI performing in front of a live audience. Or they don't invite a live pianist to a high-class wedding, but instead turn on a computer. Of course, everyone does this according to their needs, but in my opinion, these needs will not change within a few hundred years.
      Of course, as an interesting thing, artificial intelligence will remain interesting in music, just like it is in creating images or writing poetry. In art, not only the pleasure of consuming the product is important, but also the artist's creative joy.

    In ny opinion this music does not sound like the music Bach himself wrote. Basically Bach wrote music with more dynamic range, not so «straight forward» and also his music even his small pieces is never only happy…
    His music both in Major and Minor have lots of different emotions hidden inside.
    Moreover his music is just beautiful - ofcourse that is subjective but I do not think this A.I music is beautiful - its like Bach in a matematical sence but it does not (for me at least) give me that musical bliss and total relaxation and the feeling of music that have the power not only to heal the soul but also to lift the very spirit of mankind like a sun shining upon a flower in the morning.
