Challenging epistemic biases in musical AI: a guerrilla approach to human – machine comprovisation based on Xenakis’s sketches for Evryali

Article by Pavlos Antoniadis, Department of Music Studies, University of Ioannina. Download article Abstract: The objective of this paper is to reflect on the affordances of sketches as interfaces for human and machine learning, by way of a case-study based on Iannis Xenakis’s Evryali (1973). First, we report on one-to-one mappings between the composer’s original […]
