Abstract:

In this performance-lecture, the pianist performs and improvises on (or with) five different interactive algorithms, and simultaneously discusses how it feels playing with them, how their different interactive qualities affect the musical outcome, and what the human-machine situation does to us. It is a statement about the essence of process, the nature of agency, and what different types of algorithms bring to human creative process, told from a situation of being entangled with the algorithms, while trying to make music.
