"Resemble AI supercharges your AI voice with a text-to-speech AI voice generator and real-time APIs to build immersive experiences."

"Resemble AI is among a new cohort of generative AI startups aiming to use finely tuned speech models to produce dubs, audiobooks, and other media ordinarily produced by regular human voices. But if such models, perhaps trained on hours of audio provided by actors, were to fall into malicious hands, these companies may find themselves at the center of a PR disaster and perhaps serious liability. So it's very much in their interest to find a way to make their recordings both as realistic as possible and easily verifiable as being generated by AI."

"Traveling between Red Hook and Manhattan by ferry, an AI app talks to the water - and gets the water to talk back."

"Considering human imagination the last piece of wilderness, do you think AI will ever be able to write a good song?"

In Resonance: The Journal of Sound and culture "This paper explores the cultural ramifications of music generated by artificial intelligence (AI). Deploying complex algorithms to create original music productions, AI's automation of human authorship may suggest a radically new sonic form. However, its creators have preferred to use its tools to mimic established musical genres from the past. "

"how Speech AI systems operate from a very limiting set of assumptions about the human voice- are we training it, or is it actually training us?"

"Turning Towards a Radical Listening is an immersive audio-visual metaphor in which an audience is asked to reconcile how their sonic experience is represented, documented, given language and transcribed by AI algorithms over the course of apx. 70 minutes. The resulting nonsense concrete poem demands consideration of how we exist between input and output-holding space for us to tune into what can be lost in translation. "

"Scientists have recently made some remarkable discoveries about non-human sounds. With the aid of digital bioacoustics - tiny, portable digital recorders similar to those found in your smartphone - researchers are documenting the universal importance of sound to life on Earth. By placing these digital microphones all over Earth, from the depths of the ocean to the Arctic and the Amazon, scientists are discovering the hidden sounds of nature, many of which occur at ultrasonic or infrasonic frequencies, above or below human hearing range. Non-humans are in continuous conversation, much of which the naked human ear cannot hear. But digital bioacoustics helps us hear these sounds, by functioning as a planetary-scale hearing aid and enabling humans to record nature's sounds beyond the limits of our sensory capacities. With the help of artificial intelligence (AI), researchers are now decoding complex communication in other species."

"Zvook" (звук, Ukrainian for "sound") is a project bringing together software and hardware components to identify cruise missiles, helicopters, drones, and jet fighters at low to medium heights. There are currently 40 instances of the system deployed throughout Ukraine. While operational details are scarce, the project's team says that it helps the Ukrainian military locate and destroy Russian rockets targeting civilian infrastructure."

"An open source research project exploring the role of machine learning as a tool in the creative process."

None of the music on this website exists. But don't you wish it did? The reviews that make up this preview of EAR WAVE EVENT were created by a neural network fed and trained on contemporary music press. Inverting the normal flow of music criticism, we invite artists to use these reviews prescriptively - to create realizations of musics 'imagined' by a prosthetic mind.
