co-create musical compositions with the SPIN AI synthesizer
SPIN by designer Arvind Sanjeev is a you the music synthesize which lets you co-create compositions with a mannequin language, MusicGen. It's a playful invitation to discover the nuances of algorithmic music, encouraging you to decelerate and zoom in on its artifacts. It celebrates the wedding of human and machine creativity by way of music.
SPIN breaks down the method of composing music with synthetic intelligence utilizing a tangible interface. Enter the temper, style, sounds and bpm you wish to hear the music come to life on an LP disc. A DVS (Digital Vinyl System) enables you to decelerate, zoom in, scratch and hear between notes. SPIN creates new compositions, serving as a easy sound synthesizer, as a playful scratching instrument or to play stress-free music within the background.

Arvind SanjeevHis SPIN is a “artifact from a future” the place music might be hyper-tailored to folks's tastes and preferences. The mission acts as an explorer of musical curiosities that may generate music in contrast to something heard earlier than, bringing collectively unheard mixtures of sounds, rhythms and harmonies. The trouble opens up thrilling potentialities to push the boundaries of music and create fully new micro-genres. — Who's prepared for some completely happy demise metallic disco?
Underneath the hood, SPIN takes enter requests within the type of button presses through an Arduino Mega. That is despatched over serial to a Raspberry Pi which requests the MusicGen API. An mp3 file is acquired as output which is loaded onto a digital vinyl system (DVS). A transmuted Numark PT-01 and a time-controlled vinyl report function the turntable. The Xwax DVS package deal for Raspberry Pi reads vinyl timecode by way of a Behringer audio driver and the output is performed by way of stereo audio system.
