Summary:
The Djazz system was created by Marc Chemillier in collaboration with Gérard Assayag, Georges Bloch, Jean-Louis Giavitto, Mikhail Malt and Jérôme Nika, then developed by Daniel Brown as part of the ERC REACH programme within the RepMus team.
Djazz interacts with human performers and improvises in real time from different musical traditions, using the string-processing algorithm known as the factor oracle. We shall present elements of this algorithm and its applications music generation as well as architecture of this system and its possibilities for further development.
