Music is mathematics and physics, but this is not the reason why we like it. We like music because it makes us feel things, so it’s crucial to explore human perception in order to train the machines and make music instruments and tools that allow us humans to play music expressively.

This is a session to discover how machines are trained to listen, see and feel like humans do.
 
We will count with the presence of the scientist and director of the MIT’s Artificial Intelligence and Decision Making Faculty ( AI+D), Antonio Torralba; with Luc Steels, researcher professor at Institut de Biologia Evolutiva (UPF-CSIC) Barcelona and AI pioneer in Europe; Ioannis Patras, Professor in computer vision and human sensing at the Queen Mary University of London; and Shelly Knotts, artist and improviser working with humans and comptuters, with a background as an academic reserching the use of AI in improvisation and compostition.
