… Somehow I don’t think those things are what made him a great composer
Well, Bach to the drawing board then I guess
That title is completely wrong. They started with the assumption that Bach is a great composer and want to understand what it is people like about his work.
Ah yes, the best way to critique art: with math
Music in particular can be described the most mathematically. Personally, I think it’s fascinating.
Music is the area of art in which a mathematical viewpoint makes the best sense.
“First, the researchers translated each composition into an information network by representing each note as a node and each transition between notes as an edge.”
So… sheet music. They translated the music back into sheet music.
Now let’s ask mathematicians to compose music.
In a way, we have. There is already ML-generated music. It doesn’t sound bad, just boring and all the tracks sound the same.
Google “Deep Bach”.
