Fwd: ArCC research seminar (Kingston University; online 26/5) - Oded Ben-Tal Music AI


Dear colleagues, 

I am delighted to announce our next ArCC research seminar, this time organised by the Visconti Studio. On Wednesday 26 May at 4 pm, Oded Ben-Tal will be presenting his innovative research on music and artificial intelligence. An abstract and the Teams link are below.

Music AI
Artificial Intelligence technology is developing rapidly and its application to creative tasks, such as painting, poetry and music, is certainly grabbing headlines. But while the public discourse around this research is dominated by human-vis-machine narrative, this talk will focus on an alternative view - the capacity of AI as a stimulator of, and assistant to, human creativity. I will discuss the application of cutting edge AI tools in the domain of folk music, its application for musical practices both within the music tradition and in other domains, and demonstrate how creative research offers insights as part of a collaborative research project.

We hope to see many of you there. 
Best,
Isabella van Elferen
