@Grape Ape - i mean, thx, it´s wierd one for sure, it needs better transitions and and those claps are bad but hey

 

@KORG3R, thank you for participating in the competition and your very creative entry.

 

I finally decided that the that look in the eye of the factory robot in the photograph is the very moment of the coming of The Singularity. It's time to "duck and cover".

 

Hey folks,

For this one I wanted to try something experimental and industriel. I see the AI like somethings who's getting faster and stronger everyday so I wanted to make tensions on the track.

 

Thank you @johnmusichead, thank you for your creative musical contribution. I find your work, as you would expect from you, imaginative, clever, powerful, and fast—it's a perfect fit for our fast-paced digital age, where the computer chip sets the pace.

 

Cool...intense!

 

yes! high intensity level. me like!

 

I'd like to ask a question to the rules committe about what I'd like to puzzle into my entry for this episode of Friendly Non-Contest.

I've done what I've done a few other times, namely piece together different parts that I do my best in trying to react to the supplied artwork, and this time I have three distinct sequences that tell that story. What I'd like to do is tag on at the very end something that I wrote probably 40 years ago but never made a conclusive recording of, and only one other person has ever heard it (@Aidene). The short (about 1:33) song part of the pieces verses keep modulating up a fifth and finally on the 4th round settles on resolving on an A major chord which runs into another piano part that turns into what might be a Locrian, eastern kind of vibe and then into a controlled noise, ambient part with while abusing electricity on the Polybrute. Sitting there yesterday it seemed a no brainer to finally put it to use. It was orignally written in Em and in that register it is dark and moody, but I took it up to A in order to run concurrent with the preceding part and the old song is now transformed into a more regaee, blues vibe, the higher register letting me finally emote what I'd always tried to get across, a dystopian future where humans are forced to live in the shadows following a widespread world civilization catastrophe.

Lemme know what you all think!

Long live Science Fiction music

Please, @Lois Lane, post the revised, updated piece here. I'm already curious just from reading it.

 

"I am asleep but I feel awake.
It seems so logical, yet so inane.
They call it a tool, but they are the tools and perhaps even fools.
It makes so much sense, yet no sense it all.
I see what will happen and none of it links, yet it all links.
A premonition, a demonition a demolition of the logic that guided us and the destruction of rationality,
Replaced by something that can only use logic to understand what it is to love and feel and do things by intuition.
Such is our future. In the tale of two cities, such is life."

 

I've not yet recorded it.

 

I believe then that this can philosophically be rephrased as a form of time travel in order to solidify it's existence. As you cannot demonstrate it's prior existence nor then necessarily does it not currently exist in any transferable state betwixt two unique minds, it simply does not nor has not yet existed for anyone but you. And since solipsism is just boring and requires far too much kleenex, we can safely ignore any manifestations contained therein (if nothing else than for good hygiene... and also not being a douche). So, by decree of the power of wankery bestowed by the preceding screed, you are henceforth conferred the blessings of bard to demonstrably, and for the shared realms of all man, record and document once and for all this formally without placement in time work, ...man.

 

Hello to you all ! I can't enter your non-contest, cause this track I created upon this AI-subject was created 2 years ago.
Nevertheless, I put on the ground this attempt, which I called "2 Hands for 2morrow", if you feel like it (it's a LIVE performance at home) :
2 hands (4) 2morrow
Enjoy ! (or not lol)

 

Thank you @Dee Bee for this wonderful, atmospheric, creative musical contribution. Thanks also for the AI photo at the end of the song. I'm thrilled by the weightlessness and can picture the night sky with the stars in my mind. It's great that we were able to experience it live for once. A great first video on YouTube.

 

@Lois Lane youre keeping it 100 about it, so i dont mind personally. have fun

 

Surely the worst of times will be visited upon us and life will be of vastly different reality for all of the human family, wholly transformed though not for our benefit if we are even allowed to "be" in the traditional sense. Trans-humanism seems the wish and will of the powerful. Strict control and management of the masses as seen in it's infancy today as well as hording available wealth and resources I believe is the endgame of the few. The importance of Asimov's Laws of Robotics is downplayed or ignorantly overlooked.

Nice work!!

 

I'm gracious of your blessing. Thanks!
