Music

For the past couple of years, Georgia Tech music professor Gil Weinberg has been jamming at concerts all over the world with his invention, Haile the drum-playing robot.

Haile uses artificial intelligence to improvise on real drums and respond to human musicians in an ensemble. The robot has done so well he has taken up a new instrument — the xylophone.

Guitars and pianos aren’t the only instruments being used to make great music.

Brooklyn’s underground technology-driven scene is creating cutting-edge sounds with the help of computers and robots.

This new musical genre will be showcased on March 23 during the latest offering of the Tranzducer series hosted at LEMURplex, located at 461 3rd Avenue.
