Events › Introduction to AI and Music

Are you interested in learning about how AI is used in music?

This program will feature examples of musicians and their work, including the four Chicago-based artists of Chicago Creative Machines, who incorporate machine learning and AI into their musical practices.

We'll also discuss AI-and-music tools by HarmonAI, Google Magenta and others, and presenter Molly Jones will demonstrate music-generating neural networks.

Molly Jones is an improviser, composer and data engineer. Her tools include saxophones, flutes, found sounds and machine learning models and her practice originates in a place of playfulness, listening and attention.

Molly’s doctoral research focuses on building, adapting and training audio-generating neural networks for musical applications. She is the founder of Chicago Creative Machines, a lecture/performance series promoting the work of artists creating with original machine learning tools.
