Description

This book offers a thorough exploration of the potential of blockchain and AI technologies to transform musical practices. Including contributions from leading researchers in music, arts, and technology, it addresses central notions of agency, authorship, ontology, provenance, and ownership in music. Together, the chapters of this book, often navigating the intersections of post-digital and posthumanist thought, challenge conventional centralized mechanisms of music creation and dissemination, advocating for new forms of musical expression. Stressing the need for the artistic community to engage with blockchain and AI, this volume is essential reading for artists, musicians, researchers, and policymakers curious to know more about the implications of these technologies for the future of music.

Author Biography:

Paulo de Assis is an artist researcher based at Orpheus Institute, operating at the intersection of music performance, composition, critical thought, and contemporary philosophy. Active as pianist, researcher, and author, he wrote Logic of Experimentation—Rethinking Music Performance through Artistic Research (Leuven 2018). Recent artistic-research projects include experimental performance practices on music by Beethoven, Schumann, Nietzsche, and Luigi Nono. Adam Łukawski is a pioneering music composer and computer programmer, innovating at the nexus of computer-assisted music composition and posthuman artistic research. His work, deeply engaged with aleatoric and generative methods, explores the integration of AI and blockchain technologies for creating novel compositional frameworks and enhancing musical interactivity.
