•    🤳  Ai[rt] Ai[nthem] “The creative person within the machine” Muqarnas Morandi Gamosa 

Morandi color of Norman Rockwell and Andrew Wyeth releasing soothing elegant ambiance -- its nubile palette refers a muted, pale elegance.

We achieve this by first learning a compact invertible representation of spectrogram magnitudes and phases with adversarial autoencoders, then train a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) on this representation for a particular music domain, unseen and unknown landscape into this spacious range.

The Gamosa or Gamusa is an article of significance for the indigenous people of Assam, India.

It is generally a white rectangular piece of cloth...whose rays illuminate phenomenal depths, endowed with a filament of dispersion, unknown fates, unknown realities, unknown futures, unseen and unknown Datasets,
pyramid in the center, behind it all, unseen and unknown landscape, colored lights, cinematic mist, rain, wet, pristine snow creek,, lush ice bridge cart, of orange-green forest flowers

Geralt of Rivia is a fictional character and the protagonist of The Witcher series of short stories and novels by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski. He is a magically enhanced monster-hunter known as a "witcher", who possesses supernatural abilities due to his mutations.

Muqarnas  lighting + masterpiece - earliest and most impressive examples of a rule-based architectural design.
Muqarnas, also known in Iranian architecture as Ahoopāy and in Iberian architecture as Mocárabe, is a form of ornamented vaulting in Islamic architecture. It is the archetypal form of Islamic architecture, integral to the vernacular of Islamic buildings that originated in the Abbasid Empire.

They combine architecture, mathematics, and art to form highly intricate and complex stalactite structures.
The beauty of these abstract, non-figurative formations has fascinated people throughout history.
 Fast user-controllable music generation could enable novel ways of composing or performing music
However state-of-the-art music generation systems require large amounts of data and computational resources for training, and slow at inference.
This makes them impractical for real-time interactive use.

In this work, we introduce Musika, a music generation system that can be trained on hundreds of hours of music using a single consumer GPU, and that allows for much faster than real-time generation of music of arbitrary length on a consumer CPU.

A latent coordinate system enables generating arbitrarily long sequences of excerpts in parallel, while a global context vector allows the music to remain stylistically coherent through time.
We perform evaluations to assess quality of generated samples and showcase options for user control .
We release the source code and pretrained autoencoder weights at this http URL, such that a GAN can be trained on a new music domain with a single GPU in a matter of hours.
Today, advances in computational design and digital fabrication invite us to revisit these typologies.

How can computation and robotic fabrication bring the splendor of such a rule-based geometric art into the future? 

Can the computer help us to explore new and unseen muqarna formations? 

In this project, the computer becomes a tool for search and exploration, a partner in our quest for the hitherto unseen.

It allows us to create objects of exceptional breadth and depth: endless permutations of designs with a richness of detail that can once again evoke marvel, curiosity and bewilderment.
