The important thing here is that the music is not in the piano. And knowledge and edification is not in the computer. The computer is simply an instrument whose music is ideas. Yes? No? Yes-no-yes-no-yes-no.

On thinking machines
While Chiron Codex is about the application of LLMs and AI-augmented tools, we also need to understand their meaning to us, each other, and society. I have three topics: intelligence,...
Jeff Mills Drifts Into the Cosmos
AI is the latest of a long succession of tools trying to make things easier for us, and it’s always been there, and it’s always affected the music. Maybe we didn’t fear as much, but musicians just have to be more creative and to be more elusive.

Care at the Edge of Automation – Topos Institute
Technologies don’t just solve problems, they change us. We invent technologies, and they invent us in turn, shaping our lives and worlds. This is the phenomenon that Terry Winograd and Fernando Flores, in Understanding Computers and Cognition (1986), called “ontological design.” It matters now more than ever—along with a second lesson they saw clearly. Technological research is always guided (and sometimes misguided) by deep ontological assumptions about, e.g., the nature of cognition, agency, and communication. If we are to create technologies that truly serve human flourishing and care, we must bring these hidden assumptions into the open and question them at their roots.
Why We’re Taking a Human‑First Stand on AI‑Generated Music — Qobuz Community
Artificial intelligence is transforming the music industry at an unprecedented pace. Faced with the explosion of AI-generated content and the legitimate questions it raises, Qobuz has chosen transparency. This charter establishes our framework: how we use AI, where we draw our lines, and what commi
Humanism and artificial intelligence
If humanism was born with the alphabet in a literate environment and was reborn with the printing press, what becomes of it when digital technology becomes the dominant symbolic technology?

Humanities in the Machine - Blain Smith
There is something quietly remarkable about the people who built the foundations of modern computing. Not their technical achievements, though those are extraordinary. What is remarkable is where they came from before they ever touched a machine.

“It’s unfamiliar, intimidating, and seemingly impenetrable for producers raised on DAWs like Ableton Live - but it can unlock a whole new world of creativity”: I tried a music tracker and it rewired my brain (in a good way)
Beloved by artists from Aphex Twin to Deadmau5, trackers swap the trusty piano roll for a text-based, vertically-scrolling interface that looks like something out of The Matrix. Let's find out how deep the tracker rabbit hole goes
