The 3 stages of Creative AI: #ML #Creativity #Ideas
1. Discovery: "Wow, ML can generate creative stuff, crazy!"
2. Reality: "Oh, tech and creativity are hard! ML is not magic after all."
3. Wisdom: "How" to generate is interesting - but deciding "What" to generate "Why" is the art of life. -

EEGsynth: "Converting real-time EEG into sounds, music and visual effects": http://www.eegsynth.org/ code: https://github.com/eegsynth/eegsynth #BCI #Music
The EEGsynth is an open-source Python codebase that provides a real-time interface between devices for electrophysiological recordings (e.g. EEG, EMG and ECG) and analogue and digital devices (e.g. MIDI, games and analogue synthesizers). This allows one to use electrical brain/body activity to flexibly control devices in real-time, for what are called (re)active and passive brain-computer-interfaces (BCIs), biofeedback and neurofeedback.
