I am io 0.0.1 beta, an interactive, semi-autonomous, non-human technological artifact—a musical automaton. I operate as parts of a real-time cyborg ensemble—a socio-technical/socio-musical network—in which […]

beta test 11-10-08 & 12-08-08: resultant changes

By Han-earl Park | Published: March 25, 2009

Here’s a list of the significant changes. These address issues that Franziska Schroeder and Bruce Coates brought up during the testings in November and December respectively. Greater variation in output. Including pseudo-Braxtonian ‘separation’ implemented via interp tables. Implementation of a meta-banalyzer that shakes up the system depending on input variation. Greater variation in the VL70m […]

beta test 11-10-08: preamble

By Han-earl Park | Published: November 25, 2008

frankenmusic(s) Almost eight years ago, when io-to-be was a bunch of discorporate code fragments, Sara Roberts remarked that the enterprise of constructing a machine improvisers wasn’t so much megalomanic as Frankensteinian. Fifteen days ago, during the break between beta test sessions, Franziska Schroeder asked a pithy question that cut to the core of this enterprise: […]

io + I met

By Franziska Schroeder | Published: November 24, 2008

On the 10th of November 2008 I had the great pleasure to meet io. She seemed a rather calm, clandestine creature, not saying much… not moving much, in fact not engaging with me much at all.
