A Orquestra Sinfónica de Londres irá interpretar, no próximo mês de Setembro, uma peça musical intitulada "Transits - Into An Abyss", totalmente composta por um programa informático.
Desenvolvido na Universidade de Málaga, o Íamus foi buscar o nome à personagem da mitologia grega que conseguia perceber a linguagem dos pássaros.
Ontem, para comemorar o centésimo aniversário do nascimento de Alan Turing, um dos pais do computador, esta universidade do Sul de Espanha organizou um recital onde foram tocadas várias peças compostas pelo Íamus.
Francisco Vico, um dos seus criadores, explica que Íamus compõe através de um processo de mutação dos sons e das melodias. "À medida que a evolução decorre, as mutações alteram o conteúdo e a dimensão do material genético (musical) primordial, resultando na criação de peças mais elaboradas", explica o investigador.
A única intervenção humana decorre, a priori, através da definição dos instrumentos que deverão ser usados e duração máxima para a peça a compor.
Primeiro CD em setembro
Segundo o crítico de música clássica do "The Guardian", Philip Ball, quem admira, por exemplo, os húngaros Béla Bartók (1881-1945) e György Liget (1923-2006) também deverá apreciar as peças compostas por Íamus.
Para Philip Ball, "Transits - Into An Abyss" "deverá ser a primeira obra composta por um computador suficientemente boa para ser interpretada por instrumentistas de excelência".
O concerto da Orquestra Sinfónica de Londres deverá acontecer em setembro, por ocasião do lançamento do primeiro CD de Íamus.
The London Symphony Orchestra will play in next September, a musical piece entitled "Transits - Into An Abyss", composed entirely by a computer program.
Developed at the University of Málaga, Íamus went to get the name the character in Greek mythology who could understand the language of birds.
Yesterday, to celebrate the hundredth birthday of Alan Turing, a parent's computer, the University of Southern Spain organized a concert where they played several pieces composed by Íamus.
Vico Francisco, one of its creators, explains that Íamus composed through a process of mutation of sounds and melodies. "As evolution takes place, the mutations alter the content and extent of genetic material (music) primary, resulting in the creation of more elaborate pieces," explains the researcher.
The only human intervention takes place, a priori, by defining the tools to be used and maximum duration for composing the piece.
First CD in September
According to the classical music critic for "The Guardian", Philip Ball, whom he admires, for example, the Hungarian Béla Bartók (1881-1945) and György Liget (1923-2006) should also appreciate the pieces composed by Íamus.
Philip Ball, "Transits - Into An Abyss" "should be the first work composed by a computer good enough to be played by musicians of excellence."
The concert of the London Symphony Orchestra will happen in September, at the launch of the first CD Íamus.
