Humanity and inhumanity in composing
The seminar deals with composing as a human activity, questions posed by artificial intelligence and well-being in creative work.
At the beginning of the seminar, composer Minna Leinonen discusses composing as a method of perceiving the world.
This is followed by the speech of Otso Björklund, an artificial intelligence researcher, who talks about how artificial intelligence can be used as a tool and creative actor in composing.
