    I've been working on something similar, implementing a relational language on top of a tensor library[0]. Mathematically, einsum and database joins are the same thing, just over di…

    Would be curious to know how algebraic music theory is being applied here. Overall this seems pretty basic; no real voice leading, or even chords with more than 2 notes in them. Al…

    I think that's what Soloist[1] is trying to do (unaffiliated, but I've met the founder) [1]: https://www.soloistapp.com/

    The framework used in the book, malt[0], is currently not GPU-accelerated, but it's being worked on. Maybe interesting, I used it for a toy implementation of the GPT architecture[1…

    Lilypond is the only music engraving system I'm aware of that can handle polytempo scores. The TEX-ness really comes in handy.

    Not this project, I've seen this something like this done with Google's MediaPipe models to get face tracking data into Max/MSP. https://cycling74.com/forums/n4m-facemesh-handpose-…

    Racket! This is the language that the common author (Dr. Daniel Friedman) uses, and many of the Little books use custom DSLs implemented in Racket. Racket now runs on Chez under th…
