The present book is the result of a three year research project
which investigated the creative act of composing by means of
algorithmic composition. Central to the investigation are the
compositional strategies of 12 composers, which were documented
through a dialogic and cyclic process of modelling and evaluating
musical materials. The aesthetic premises and compositional
approaches configure a rich spectrum of diverse positions, which is
reflected also in the kinds of approaches and methods used. These
approaches and methods include the generation and evaluation of
chord sequences using genetic algorithms, the application of
morphing strategies to research harmonic transformations, an
automatic classification of personal preferences via machine
learning, and an application of mathematical music theory to the
analysis and resynthesis of musical material. The second part of
the book features contributions by Sandeep Bhagwati, William
Brooks, David Cope, Darla Crispin, Nicolas Donin, and Guerino
Mazzola. These authors variously consider the project from
different perspectives, offer independent approaches, or provide
more general reflections from their respective research fields.
