#271: Algorithmic and Generative Music with Canton Becker

Canton Becker is a musician, programmer, and web designer. Recently he has turned his focus to algorithmic and generative music. His site, Pi Songs, used the number pi to create a musical piece 114 years long. Canton has been pushing the limits of technology and creativity for decades. He was a fundamental part of the Res Rocket Surfer project, which enabled for real time musical collaboration in the early days of the internet.

Canton spoke to me about algorithmic music and how he created Pi Songs in collaboration with visual artist Jeffrey Ventrella. His thoughts on the future of music and technology was both inspiring and a bit frightening! Canton gave a fascinating demonstration of his how his algorithmic music making works in real time.
