Mix Musings (001)

Resurge

"A story about a girl from a time long ago, she opened up her mind with the eyes of the owl

When the day was done she sat down beneath the setting sun

The clouds lifted
The moon radiates inside her face she opened up her soul to bear
clean it in the air and blew through her hair, aint that fair?

So she solemnly looks within, found her stars beneath the winds
She opened up her arms and pointed to the sky
She saw them twinkle from afar before she died

Inside inside those ancient memories where you will free yourself, inside the lullabies--

Of the time cycle resonant with the stars -- youre sent here far

Interfacing through atmospheres
Ionic transportation of mirrors

Where you are then you are now you are here
Distributed in the cloud
like a pure --

Vessel, angelic messenary, you'll find the arcs to the contrary in pure geometry"

10 day process generating and selecting iterations to create a concept album that explores various themes and perspectives around the looming A.I. paradigm, its projection field, and implicit potential.

My intention is not to present this as MY production work, for it is not. The AI does all the heavy lifting, and it's body of learning is based on thousands on thousands of data points, reading and learning patterns. 

After being blown away from generating "Dimensional Lattice", I was highly inspired  to write a full album on the subject of AI, which the "Bleeding Edge" encapsulates. It was an urge to get ahead of the wave, and to project a more positive glimpse of how the AI zeitgeist can bring the world a lot good, in the shadow of so many negative and fearful narratives and projections that have been enculturated for several generations.  

The generative process is like the role of a writer and director, giving prompt inputs, lyrical content, and selecting iterations. 

My work on this was time, stylistic direction, input, and choice. 

Although I can't give credit to any musicians individually, my gratitude and appreciation to the corpus of music that this model was trained on, has my gratitude, albeit sublimated. I am sensitive and concerned about sourcing, rights, and the ethics of this technology. I hope with time that will become more clear. 

Crafted with the amazing www.udio.com, directing generative AI.
