Live Coding Towards Computational Creativity
نویسندگان
چکیده
Live coding is a way of improvising music or video animation through live edits of source code, using dynamic language interpreters. It requires artists to represent their work within a formal computer language, using a higher level of abstraction than is the norm. Although the only creative agents in live coding performance are human, this abstraction makes the practice of interest to the field of computational creativity. In this paper live coders are surveyed for their thoughts on live coding and creativity, related to the aims of building creative agents.

Improvising with Synthesised Vocables, with Analysis Towards Computational Creativity
In the context of the live coding of music and computational creativity, literature examining perceptual relationships between text, speech and instrumental sounds are surveyed, including the use of vocable words in music. A system for improvising polymetric rhythms with vocable words is introduced, together with a working prototype for producing rhythmic continuations within the system. This i...
متن کاملCreative Partnerships with Technology: How Creativity Is Enhanced Through Interactions with Generative Computational Systems
This paper discusses emerging creative practices that involve interacting with generative computational systems, and the effect of such cybernetic interactions on our conceptions of creativity and agency. As computing systems have become more powerful in recent years, real time interaction with ‘intelligent’ computational processes and models has emerged as a basis for innovative creative pract...
متن کاملComputational Challenges of Co-Creation in Collaborative Music Live Coding: An Outline
Co-creation between a human agent (HA) and a virtual agent (VA) is an approach to collaboration that has been explored in different creative domains, particulary in computer music. With a few exceptions, there is little research on the use of virtual agents in collaborative music live coding (CMLC), a network music improvisational practice. This paper considers the benefits of CMLC both in educ...
متن کاملFour PPPPerspectives on computational creativity in theory and in practice
Computational creativity is the modelling, simulating or replicating of creativity computationally. In examining and learning from these “creative systems”, from what perspective should the creativity of a system be considered? Are we interested in the creativity of the system’s output? Or of its creative processes? Features of the system?Or how it operates within its environment? Traditionally...
متن کاملFour PPPPerspectives on Computational Creativity
From what perspective should creativity of a system be considered? Are we interested in the creativity of the system’s output? The creativity of the system itself? Or of its creative processes? Creativity as measured by internal features or by external feedback? Traditionally within computational creativity the focus had been on the creativity of the system’s Products or of its Processes, thoug...
