20 years since my first generative music model!
Posted by dorien on Thursday, 10 October 2024
Can't believe it's been 20 years already (!!!) since I wrote my first work on generative music models as my master thesis as commercial engineer @University of Antwerp, supervised by Kenneth Sörensen.
For those interested, it used a Tabu Search algorithm to optimize abc notation format melodies given a ruleset. Coded in Pascal with midi expert function coded in pure hex.
Read thesis here (in Dutch with full source code in appendix).
