Naomi SaphraThe most fun I ever had on the birdsite was making a recommendation thread. So I'll try it here!
Recommend me something, anything! I will reply with a recommendation back.
Andrey Kurenkov@nsaphra here's something random: Yacht's album Chain Tripping https://youtu.be/Exgd6AW-NKg
They used AI to compose lyrics and music for it in a pretty groundbreaking way - https://www.kcrw.com/news/shows/press-play-with-madeleine-brand/using-a-i-to-make-a-music-album/how-yacht-used-a-i-to-make-their-album-chain-tripping
They even gave a talk at the Neurips 2019 creativity+AI workshop about it. Also, YACHT is just generally awesome.
YACHT — (Downtown) Dancing
@andrey That is really cool! Have you heard of Giuseppe Arcimboldo? He was a really popular renaissance painter who did very surreal art that looks like it would fit better into the 20th or 21st century. Seeing his work made me think: humans have always been into weird art! It seems obvious, except that that's just not how you think of tastes from hundreds of years ago.
@nsaphra ooh super interesting, thanks for sharing!
