Yesterday @chandavanderhart.bsky.social and I presented "Listen Here! A Web-native digital musicology environment for machine-assisted close listening" at #DLfM2023 in Milan. Slides available at tinyurl.com/dlfm2023-ssv Thanks to the organisers, presenters and attendees for a fantastic conference!

A text-to-image model trained entirely on open Creative Commons images, and competitive with Stable Diffusion. Goodbye, finger-wagging about IP, which was always based on a false premise of scarcity. 🧪 #MLSky 1/2

I am finding joy in using generative AI to finally give fictional characters the win they have been desperately seeking

I was prepared to dislike this article because the headline puts all the emphasis on transformer architecture as such, but actually it starts with a good scrolly-telling introduction to word embeddings and vector space. Good stuff.

I love this Radiohead song

New op-ed from Brewster Kahle in The Guardian: "Will we fight to support and defend universal education and equitable access to information – or stand by as some politicians and powerful corporations take deadly aim against those long-cherished values?" www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Wonderful plenary presentation by Gerhard Widmer (and spotlighting the awesome work by Carlos Cancino-Chacón) on computational expressivity in music accompaniment, culminating in a discussion of adversarial artificial piano performance 🎹⚔️🎹

Today the Signature Sound Vienna team (@chandavanderhart.bsky.social and I) are headed to the German Musicological Society conference #GfMTagung2023. We'll be showing off mei-friend at the #digitalmusicology market place, and presenting on our project. If you're in Saarbrücken come say hi!

Pls 🔄: 🗓️ Only two more weeks until the beginning of our exciting lecture series at Würzburg University and our poster is making appearances all over the city! Talks will be recorded an published here codamus.pubpub.org in case you can't attend in person! #musicscience #digitalhumanities #dh
