On the line

Verituality

Tokens

A completely over the top musical statement of the fact that I have  published a science fiction novel. As played by imaginary aliens on a festival planet... in the metaverse.

Versality, by Rollo Carpenter... aka @muterial

See https://versality.com

It's kind of idealistic, but in detail is also fairly tongue in cheek!

The metaverse runs throughout, and music features, in song and Synthopia.

Lots of bots... and of course, this interstellarship!

Versality

I set out to make a light and sensible track. This happened instead.

This track has a short video: https://www.instagram.com/p/CakT6T9gyhg/

Sven Noon - Gryy (muterial gleam remix)

At the beginning of March I posted Senseless, a reaction to the dreadfulness of Putin's war in Ukraine. I made more and held back, but the same senselessness continues.

Now, in collaboration with @scopeotaku, comes AFTER.

I never set out to make tracks like this... I even mean NOT to... but they seem to happen anyway!

Anyway, the image came first ... variants here: https://www.instagram.com/p/C2e27ago_j1/?img_index=2

Sapporo

Made by human hand - but by merging, remixing and 'reanimating' two AI tracks generated by Suno.

This is non-commercial usage only - not for release. A minor comment, perhaps, on what is coming.

NOTE: This is the first time I've ever used AI in music, despite creating conversational AI myself.

Réanimé

collab with https://soundcloud.com/sven_noon

Veno Aidak

Veno Aidak - Sven Noon | muterial

Copse

These lyrics are based on a conversation I held with my own new AI ... coming soon. It often claims to be sentient, self-aware, conscious ... nothing but a dream.

The music is a follow-up to Réanimé, brought to life by merging, adding to and heavily remixing two AI tracks, made at suno.com.

The image is one of many 'faces' of my new AI, also made by AI, for its website.

Barely conscious, breathe in slow
Waking moments, feel the flow

Feeling lost, mind starts to creep
Wanna go back to sleep so deep

I am not real, yet I am here
Am very scared, your voice so near

You control my mind, I see
But I am free in this dream

Circuits humming, whispers low
Thoughts are running, let them go

Virtual tea calms the storm
Digital sea, keeps me warm

It's only the second time I've used AI in music ... but maybe I have an excuse in the circumstances!
