New Album Fuses AI And Quantum Computing, Pushing Music’s Limits

Description

Eduardo Reck Miranda’s musical composition “Qubism” features violin, viola, cello, flute, trombone, marimba — and quantum computing.

 

The classically trained composer and professor of computer music at England’s Plymouth University integrated pauses into his score where a quantum computer running an AI model he’d trained could respond in real time to one of the instruments, the violin, with synthesized saxophone and percussion. The result is a futuristic improvisation that sounds different every time the composition plays.
