Cycling '74 Max/MSP: LEMUR's Guitar Bot Plays Along In Real Time

October 29, 2007
A duet with LEMUR's Guitar Bot

Violinist Mari Kimura used Cycling '74 Max/MSP to create a program which allowed her to play violin and have LEMUR's Guitar Bot analyze her parts in real time and play a duet with her. Little did Mari know that Guitar Bot would turn the tables on Mari and start influencing what she was playing.

Eric Singer from the League of Electronic Musical Urban Robots attributes Guitar Bot's influence to the inspiring sight of watching a robot slide up and down a string and actually play music it is creating. I disagree. I theorize that Guitar Bot is slowly honing his mind control powers in anticipation of doomsday, but that's just my opinion.

Presenter: Eric Singer, LEMUR
