blob opera [browser]
Not a game, but a new browsertoy you simply have to try: Blob Opera, create your own opera inspired song, no music skills required, with this machine learning experiment by David Li in collaboration with Google Arts and Culture.
Might be getting a bit too niche, but would be great if in the future we could choose certain cadences/scales/ranges. My ear kept wanting a Picardy cadence where it went minor instead - but that's probably the musician in me talking!
The assumption is that your going to be able to make what you want to. Then hit the rec. button play it & simply share your creation. The reality is your only controlling 1 blob & it takes time to get something good. Because it is a bit hit or miss your not going to be recording at the time. If you do record all the time you have a lot of junk to edit off. My biggest complaint is location of my mouse always goes off below. Also it hits the mute, or stops the recording on me. This is still a lot of fun mind you, and their distortions are great.
Love this, Bart! So fun! Thank you for sharing!

If you bring just the tenor and bass down to the lowest level and wiggle the syllables the the left, you get a very satisfying power octave.
ReplyDeleteLove to play with it,
ReplyDeleteBut did anybody manage to make a song yet?
