Saatgut Proxy is an experimental generative setup in Pure Data that creates both randomized and repeatable pathways through the latent space of two self trained neural audio synthesizers build on architectures RAVE and vschaos2.
Both models have been trained on a subset and selection from my own music written and produced under the Martsman moniker.
The framework is based both on generalized abstractions that I have developed for the Latent Jamming use case and additional prototypes of techniques that I turned into dedicated abstractions later on.
Public performances and output examples
Saatgut Proxy was presented at ArtSearch symposium at ligeti zentrum in Hamburg during a lecture performance and along with a presentation on Latent Jamming and shared human/AI agency in electronic music creation at Storytellers+Machines 2024 conference at SODA (Manchester).
The framework led to the following release artifacts:
MARTSM=N – VARIA 3L [datamarts/2KOMMA1]: Nina
MARTSM))N – Saatgut Proxy Reflux [datamarts/2KOMMA0]: Nina
MARTSM))N – Saatgut Proxy [n/a]: Bandcamp
