Open Challenges in Musical Metacreation
It addresses incremental issues in musical metacreation for researchers in AI and music, proposing hybridization as a potential solution.
The paper examines the evolution of musical metacreation from algorithmic composition to a focus on creativity, identifying challenges in achieving this goal and suggesting that hybridizing algorithms may be a promising research direction.
Musical Metacreation tries to obtain creative behaviors from computers algorithms composing music. In this paper I briefly analyze how this field evolved from algorithmic composition to be focused on the search for creativity, and I point out some issues in pursuing this goal. Finally, I argue that hybridization of algorithms can be a useful direction for research.
