COMPOSITION AS GAME STRATEGY: MAKING MUSIC BY PLAYING BOARD GAMES AGAINST EVOLVED ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS
Eduardo Reck Miranda, Qi‐Jun Zhang · 2005
This paper introduces MIDI-Connect4, a program that composes music from the unfolding of a board game called Connect4. The system uses evolutionary computation to evolve from scratch a neural network that plays the Connect4 game. Music is produced when a user plays the game against the system. The system generates music by associating the moves of each player with musical forms. 1.
