How much success have people here had with algorithmic composition, using computers to generate rhythms, drumloops etc? AE have mentioned using this on various interviews, but never specific details, as always ;). Anyone had good results with this method of composition, or any info on how AE use it? |

Spacecadet has struck on the same problem that I have... everything I've done 'automatically' tends to sound crap - I think this might be something to do with the 'entropy' of a rhythm - if you repeatedly apply algorithms to rhythms etc., they tend to just go random. Some of the early automatic music (Xenakis et al. is nice, but not really what I'd like in terms of Autechre-esque complexity) btw, Key_Secret - the 'creepy avatar' is a Chicken McNugget where the chickens head went through the machine! |

isn't that what all mcnuggets are? and i think that humans do a much better job of composition than computers.. |

Most programs I've seen use fractal methods for harmonic development... it's immature and unsatisfying. But I have a geeky friend who once wrote a jazz-making program for C64, it gave out some serious shit, like, its every other run was a masterpiece! Fuck me for selling my C64 and losing the diskettes :( |
