AI music generators allow anyone to “create” songs instantly from simple text prompts. The companies that make them are valued at billions of dollars. These platforms have been trained on the sum total of all recorded music, while the companies that make them deny allegations of copyright infringement. So what do they mean for working musicians, educators, and the future of music?
Please join us at a special Periodic Tables event hosted at Motorco Music Hall for a conversation with Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Tift Merritt and composer/guitar legend Marc Ribot (Tom Waits, Elvis Costello, countless others).
Periodic Tables is an informal science gathering during which invited speakers share interesting, relevant science with the general public in an engaging and interactive way. This series is hosted by the Duke Initiative for Science & Society.
This event is sponsored in part by Duke Arts, presenting Marc Ribot: Reframing Dylan at Reynolds Industries Theater on Thursday, March 19, at 7:30 pm.
Marc Ribot performs re-interpretations and re-framings of Bob Dylan’s mid 1960s-era visionary poetry, the poetic environment from which Dylan’s work emerged, and the visionary poetry/music that emerged from it.
