Writer and musician Claire L. Evans’ talk “How To Chain Trip: Making Human Music with AI” looks at the cross section of technology and culture. In the talk, Evans discusses how her band, YACHT, used AI to fundamentally change the creative process for its album, Chain Trip. Evans is concerned with the balance between using AI as a tool to make art and allowing it to alter the form of what is being made, looking more closely at how to be conscious about the use of technology in music. After the talk, Evans will have a discussion with local musicians Marcel Sletten and Oliver Domingo about creative uses for technology in art and music in the past, present and future. Sletten will perform a solo electronic music set and Domingo an electronic and orchestral-influenced set after the conversation.
