19 OCTOBER

Musical creativity and Artificial Intelligence

Location: Facultat de Filosofia i Lletres de la UAB
Time: from 1-6pm

How will Artificial Intelligence radically revolutionize the way we make, interpret and listen to music? The event of the 19th will bring together prominent artists and scientists who work in the field of AI, creativity and music to debate the different social, ethical, creative and technical challenges we face, music being an example of the spaces in which we will live with AI technologies. It will also be an opportunity to see new entrepreneurial models and opportunities in the music and creative industries.

The event will also include different workshops on musical creativity and Artificial Intelligence (AI), a round table and will end with a concert with the UAB chamber choir and the pianist and creator Carles Marigó.

Throughout the day, there will also be open doors at the AudioLab, from UAB Open Labs.
