Gus Guangyu Xia -- Towards More Creative and Interactive Music AI

Abstract: Gus works on music AI systems for intimate human-computer interaction and co-creation. In this talk, he will present two recent prototype systems: the haptic-flute tutor and the popsong piano arranger. The former is a hyperinstrument which can guild human fingers and make music learning more efficient and enjoyable. The latter is a general framwork which unifies melody and accompaniment creation. At the end of the talk, Gus will show his vision on merging these two efforts for new music experiences.
