David replied to Dave Dexter's discussion I'm on the radio soon. Bonzer!
""the coolest thing I heard on the radio this week" Well it was certainly interesting to hear a new radio station which struck me after around half an hour of being a sort of Californian Classic FM. However did you get involved with it?"

A set of variations for orchestra on the familiar "Happy Birthday" song.  I wrote this for a friend's birthday.  Not an especially serious piece, but I'd be interested to read people's feedback.https://youtu.be/jA6Kw2A79doBirthday Variations -…

David replied to Saul Gefen's discussion Sonata for Piano in 3 Movements
"ok, so it isn't following the classical sonata form -- that answers my question, thanks.

Saul Gefen replied to Saul Gefen's discussion Sonata for Piano in 3 Movements
"Hi David, Thanks.
 
Well, it certainly can be called a Fantasia, but this piece had three parts and a logical connection between the movements, so I decided to call it a Sonata, a rather very free form of a Sonata I might add. "

David replied to Saul Gefen's discussion Sonata for Piano in 3 Movements
"I found this to be one of the most interesting and adventurous of your recent piano works but it struck me as being more in the form of a fantasia. You've called it a sonata so my question is, am I simply missing the sonata form here?"

Dave Dexter replied to John Driscoll's discussion Udio AI - Short Opera Scene in the Style of Richard Strauss
"Music libraries, and media using them, goes back some time. It's not a modern facet of the industry at all, and the difference is still that a human created those pieces. You can play devil's advocate along the lines of "modern composers regurgitate…"

HS Teoh replied to John Driscoll's discussion Udio AI - Short Opera Scene in the Style of Richard Strauss
"Yes, that's what I'm trying to get at.  Like it or not (and personally I don't like it, but it's the harsh reality) the AI hype is going in the direction of replacing low-effort music productions.  How far it is along that line of development I…"

David Lilly replied to John Driscoll's discussion Udio AI - Short Opera Scene in the Style of Richard Strauss
""If a client is satisfied with the kind of mindless regurgitation of training data that current AI produces, I'm glad they aren't my clients."
Well, just to poke the bear a little then -
 
 
How is that much worse than a producer, music supervisor,…"

HS Teoh replied to John Driscoll's discussion Udio AI - Short Opera Scene in the Style of Richard Strauss
"The point is not about right or wrong answers to math problems. That was only an illustration to show that current generative AI is incapable of reasoning.  It's pretty good at aping the process of reasoning, but if you look at it deep enough,…"

  • Indeed, it has been solved. Thanks for the prompt response!
  • HS, I believe I've isolated the HTML issue mentioned, and I believe it's now resolved. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
  • Thanks HS. I'll investigate the matter.
  • Hmm, interesting. I just noticed that replies under the Discussion Forum do allow full HTML capabilities, but replies under Analysis & Critique don't. Maybe this is a section-specific setting that needs to be toggled?
  • It's been a while since somebody wrote something here. So I thought I'd bring up this request to allow links and attachments in comments, not just in posts. It would make it easier to have in-depth discussions without needing to create a new thread every time somebody wants to attach something to illustrate their ideas.
  • ok - that sounds like a good setting so will be interesting to see what the explanation (if any) is.
  • David, puzzling, because the site's settings at present bar members who aren't "friended" from sending private messages. I'll look into it.
  • As newest member Erica Woodward sent a message to at least one member wanting to urgently discuss something privately, it is to suspected that we have another spammer. If I remember correctly, on the old forum, prospective members had to submit a couple of sentences (which weren't posted publicly) explaining why they wanted to join the forum. I suspect spambots and others who are not serious about contributing would fall at this hurdle and I suggest something like this for possible consideration by the membership.
  • It seems the consensus was reaching a crescendo, so I had to dust off the Gold Codes:)
  • Anyone else having issues posting links/embeds in replies? I can't for the life of me get them to work in responding to Rowy's Halloween thread... I just get an error message each time. Seems to work ok posting a new thread?
