Un-restrained by the mathematical constraints of the prescribed matrix of notes, structures and waveform interactions, this piece would seek to explore breaking free from the hierarchical dogma of what music is "supposed to be".
Rather than fingers tapping out mathematically constrained rules based celebrations of the "norm", all manner of eliciting a sonic revolution, an "anti-musical" insurrection, turmoil and tumult flying in the face of dogmatic "procedures, rules and regulations."
Fists would fly, elbows, the palms of the hands, back of the hands, feet, forehead all combining to turn the keyboard, a centuries old bastion of musical custom and etiquette, into an inferno of rebellion, defiance, even heresy.
Aaaand… scene.-- doctorremulac3, Oct 22 2024 I'd like to see this gal make piano interpretations of various famous paintings. https://www.youtube...watch?v=S75gYhODS0M [doctorremulac3, Oct 23 2024] This song is rather busy, but definitely not trash. https://youtu.be/Qs...z2V4?feature=shared"I paid for the whole piano. I'm a gonna use the whole piano." [RayfordSteele, Oct 23 2024] Stupid idea, vacuously written, no redeeming features [+]-- pocmloc, Oct 22 2024 Yuuuuup. Finally! Someone gets it!-- doctorremulac3, Oct 22 2024 This is pretty much “noise” music or free-form jazz… kind of. You’re proposing absolute chaos, where Pollock’s paintings were organized chaos.-- Jeakams, Oct 23 2024 Well, good point, maybe the player would take that into consideration and reflect it in the piece.
You know, it's not beyond the realm of possibility that somebody could make this interesting. I couldn't but if somebody took up the challenge and made this work? I'd be impressed.
And again, I don't know how they'd do that but I'd maybe start by giving the challenge to this gal to see what she came up with. (link)
She plays Happy Birthday if it was written by various famous composers. I actually would like to see what she came up with for this.
Hey, forget about just Jackson Pollock, how about Van Gough's Starry Night for piano? The Persistence Of Memory?
Actually, maybe that would be a hurdy gurdy or something.-- doctorremulac3, Oct 23 2024 There is software available that will directly turn an image into sound (I downloaded one years ago). I forget how it worked; x-axis was time, but colour value & y-axis were both used too; pitch & volume or volume & pitch or something. Not really an "artistic interpretation" but a reasonable first step.-- neutrinos_shadow, Oct 24 2024 Now THAT'S an area getting AI involved could be interesting. Have it gauge a particular scene, write the music but have people rate it's accuracy to calibrate it. It's not beyond the realm of possibility that you point your phone at a scene and push the "Write background / theme music" button and say "Wow! That's perfect!".
As for the link Ray, starts off with a bit of a JP vibe, but gets pretty musical within the rules of music. Mainly sounding pretty good.-- doctorremulac3, Oct 24 2024 random, halfbakery
