Artificially intelligent music lacks intelligence…emotional intelligence, that is.
There’s something about speaking a sentence to another person that is not only the words you’re saying but how you’re saying what you’re saying, which creates a tonal perception that dictates what a person perceives. While every individual has an individual voice, if one does not understand how to use their unique voice based on their tonal center, their message has a higher chance of being misinterpreted.
I am the poster child of someone who has had to work extremely hard to understand my tonal center because of my extreme ability for words, black-and-white communication, and the ultimate clarity when it comes to articulation. What I lack the most and have to work on daily is my ability to communicate in everyday life as I do in music. What I get out of writing these articles to the youth is to force myself to articulate to a child (and/or an adult that wants to learn like a child) my way of connecting dots that are not traditional. Of making connections that one may otherwise have a hard time understanding in their own mind to learn to not just make independent decisions but to have an independent thought process. Because I’m rooted in independence naturally, sharing the thought process I know has and always will be helpful for those who may feel more pressure or influence to follow the crowd.
