Composing with Melomics: Delving into the Computational World for Musical Inspiration
Gustavo Diaz-Jerez · Leonardo Music Journal · 2011
The author describes his work with the Melomics approach to music composition. Taking the melody as its main object of study, Melomics, mimicking biology, implements a simulated evolution of music composition using generative methods. The goal of this work is to model the full process of professional music composition using sophisticated strategies for algorithm design.
