“Generative music” is understood as music in which the composer establishes prefixed sound materials and rules that govern its evolution over time. This compositional technique can be considered an algorithmic approach to music, which puts it in direct relation with computer science.

This City and Science Biennial presents very diverse cases of generative music, from the work of Josep Maria Mestres Quadreny, a pioneer of computational music on an international level, to experimentation with writing code live.

In this concert, AGF - Poemproducer is developing a composition process based on the work of Iannis Xenakis. This session is a good context for explaining and making stochastic process-based music and AGF's confluence of computer codes and the poetic word heard.
