S.Lehman & Orchestre National de Jazz & Ircam electronics: Ex Machina

[Jérôme Nika]

Album release & release tour:

Ex Machina by Steve Lehman and Orchestre National de Jazz

... for which I created the generative electronics for orchestration and interaction with composers Steve Lehman and Frederic Maurin, using the Dicy2 environment we develop at Ircam with Augustin Muller is out! (more here). 

Some of the generative agents used in this project are available in the Dicy2 for Ableton Live tutorials and the Dicy2 for Max tutorials (playlist) along with the associated training files (courtesy of the composers).

With the support of the ERC REACH project directed by Gérard Assayag and funded by the European Research Council, the European Union's Horizon 2020 program, the Centre national de la musique, the Maison de la Musique Contemporaine, Sacem and Spedidam.
