Beat Blender

Musical project from Google Creative Lab lets you generate beats with the assistance of Machine Learning, exploring variations with output support:

This experiment lets you explore and create beats in a fun new way using machine learning. Just drag the circle, or draw a path to discover beats. It’s built using a neural network trained on over 3.8 Million drum beats. Built by Torin Blankensmith and Kyle Phillips with friends on the Magenta team at Google. Made with deeplearn.js.

Akira Murals In Shibuya Shibuya Parco has been using an Akira artwork on their construction fence since 17 May 2017. It is a collaboration between the worldwide popular manga author Katsuhiro Otomo and collaborating artist Kosuke Kawamura, who has collaborated with Otomo on other works as well. The project is drawn on a big wall enclosing the construction site of Shibuya Parco. This artwork is the first of many that will be added slowly until Summer 2019. Akira is a manga by Katsuhiro Otomo that was turned into one of the most popular anime of all time. The anime takes place in 2019 in a place called Neo Tokyo, which (in the anime) is under redevelopment for the Tokyo Olympics 2020. The anime has resurfaced since it foresaw the Tokyo Olympics.

Etymologies

Installation artworks by United Visual Artists is a collection of dot-matrix displays that generate ever changing writings algorithmically:

These canvases of geometric shape are illuminated by transitioning text. Algorithmically driven, the text on indistinguishable origin recalculates, reduces and expands, motivated by but not a direct reflection of human instruction. We witness the presence of a co-contributor who while deconstructing the source text, allegorically deconstructs the concept of independent authorship and more importantly, independent readership. This process of deconstruction questions the role of authenticity and the nature of appropriation in the Information Age. Employing the post-structuralist rationale that literary sources lie impregnated with reference, inherently a product of their own authorial context, the text is reduced to pure patterns which in turn, incite the viewer to rebuild order. The words of Roland Barthes resound “the birth of the reader must be at the cost of the death of the Author” as we engage in a process of inference, seeking out logic and poetry, while simultaneously  submitting to the complex, mechanical mind. The unique shape of each canvas serves to highlight how our experience is not only shaped by the content, but by the environment in which it is viewed.
