Cocreative Interaction: Somax2 and the REACH Project

Full publication By Gérard Assayag, Laurent Bonnasse-Gahot, Joakim Borg Abstract: Somax2 is an artificial intelligence (AI)-based multiagent system for human–machine co-improvisation that generates stylistically coherent streams while continuously listening and adapting to musicians or other agents. The model on which it is based can be used with little configuration to interact with humans in full autonomy, […]

Somax2

Go to Somax2 project page at Ircam Somax 2 is an application for musical improvisation and composition. It is implemented in Max and is based on a generative model using a process similar to concatenative synthesis to provide stylistically coherent improvisation, while listening to and adapting to a musician (or any other type of audio […]
