Concept Machine
A shared space where new concepts are proposed, discussed, combined and traced until they settle into common use.
The discussion space is being built and is not open yet. Reading will not require an account; contributing will, with sign-in through GitHub or a verified email address, so that every contribution carries its author.
Snapshot
Co-creation
Assimilated · by Luciano Azzigotti
Creative work in which people and computational systems both shape the result, with neither reduced to a tool of the other.
Machine listening
Assimilated · by Luciano Azzigotti
Computational analysis of sound that models aspects of how humans hear, segment and interpret audio.
Agential instrument
In discussion · by Luciano Azzigotti
A musical instrument that proposes, resists or answers, so that playing becomes a negotiation rather than control.
Speculative organology
In discussion · by Luciano Azzigotti
The study of instruments that do not exist yet, or not in this form, as a way of asking what musical practice could become.
Latent listening
Neologism · by Luciano Azzigotti
Listening through the latent space of a generative model: attending to what the model could produce rather than what it did.
Concept emergence
Neologism · by Luciano Azzigotti
The collective process by which a term moves from proposal to shared use, traced through the discussion that shaped it.
Instrument as score
In discussion · by Luciano Azzigotti
An instrument whose design already contains the composition, so that building and composing become one act.
Neologism
Assimilated · by Luciano Azzigotti
A newly coined word, or an old word given a new sense.
