Algorithms creating art from "summary" of Automate This by Christopher Steiner
The concept of algorithms creating art may seem paradoxical or even sacrilegious to some. After all, art is often seen as the ultimate expression of human creativity and emotion, something that can't be replicated or replaced by a cold, calculating machine. But the truth is that algorithms have been creating art for years now, and they're getting better at it every day. One of the most famous examples of algorithms creating art is the work of composer David Cope and his program EMI (Experiments in Musical Intelligence). Cope fed EMI thousands of musical compositions, from Bach to the Beatles, and the program analyzed the patterns and structures in the music. Using this data, EMI was able to compose its own original pieces that sounded remarkably like the work of human composers. Another example of algorithms creating art is the work of filmmaker Benjamin Grosser and his program Interactive Machine Learning for Object Recognition. Grosser's program analyzed over 1,000 Hollywood films, identifying common tropes and visual motifs. Using this data, the program was able to generate its own film sequences that felt like they had been l...
