AI meets Music

July 10, 2020

AI x Music is an exhibition about the encounter of artificial intelligence and music as well as about the encounter of human creativity and technical perfection. Music is not only perhaps the most emotional of all art forms, but has also always had deep connections to mathematics as well as to the physics of sound production and to the skill of the instrument makers. From the very beginning, the history of music is also the history of the instruments, tools and apparatus that were necessary for its performance, recording and reproduction.

Machine learning and artificial intelligence now bring many new possibilities for creative design that artists around the world are already working on.
 

AI FOR GOOD LIVE | Human collaboration with an AI Musician

Streamed live Oct 22, 2020

Improvising music is one of the most creatively challenging and rewarding things that humans can do together. It evokes virtuosity, motor skills, timing, trust and ‘feel’, each person working moment-to-moment to keep the music flowing. When collaboration works, the results seem almost magical, but achieving a good collaboration is fragile and difficult, even for the best music improvisers. What happens when one of the musicians is an Artificial Intelligence?

The panelists will showcase their research and discuss ideas behind the design of AI systems that inspire and support human creativity. Creativity forces fundamentally different thinking about what AI should be over the conventions that have dominated other domains.

This presentation will include music performances and an interactive Q&A featuring researchers at Monash University in Melbourne Australia, and Goldsmiths, University of London in the UK.

KUKA Robotics – club_KUKA – Robots DJ Show "Chill-Mode"

Jan 18, 2022

club_KUKA is an unprecedented KUKA show cell that combines entertainment and robotics with technical precision and artistic value. All in all, the show cell is home to a cool group called the Kjays. A KR3 AGILUS at the drums, loops its beats and sets the beat. The KR CYBERTECH nano is our nimble DJ with rhythm in his blood. In addition, a KR AGILUS performs as a light artist and enchants with soft and expansive movements. In addition there is an LBR iiwa, which - mounted on the ceiling - keeps an eye on the unusual robot party. https://www.kuka.com/film-stage-robots
