Genetic Algorithm Generating Music - Music Hack Day London 2010

Music Hack Day London September 2010.

More info at: http://www.gregorymead.com/musichackday/

Generating Music Using Genetic Algorithms in CUDA using the 7digital API.

The algorithm transforms an input audio file into a second target file. This results in gradual combination of the audio and some quite amusing results.

The video shows how the FFT of the best fitting result changes for each generation.

What a waste of my time. Thanks I will find you in hell and steal that time back from you.

@justinlloyd3 Thanks for your comment

It would be useful to hear the input sound, an intermediate sound, and an output.

@Olucatei Unfortunately the length of the track is only 50 ms so would be difficult to listen to :(

Now that's a video where not having an audio track is a *dumb* idea. WHY???

[musicmetric1]

@dojohansen123 Each frame of the video corresponds to a different audio track.

where the HELLL is the audio ?

[dolata000]

Kewl idea. But where is the audio ??? Making music ??? For all we can tell it made the sound of a donkey braying - OFF KEY.

Funny how people don't understand the video.
