wolframtones
By ET
In a previous blog entry, I mentioned Steven Wolfram who was the creator of Mathematica. He recently applied his research of “A New Kind of Science“(Book readable online) to art. This is called “Wolfram Tones“, which instantly create unique music in many different genres. After listening to some compositions and creating a few random ones myself, I think it is very cool.
I don’t think it is academically pathbreaking or something like that, but using computer to create art work (or scientific papers in that matter) has been touted by computer scientists for a long long time. This one is actually quite near. If there is a Turing test for music creation, I would give this one a pass.
