Genetic Harmonies by spiderassassin Play in your browser

For this year's ProcJam, I made a co creative tool to generate harmonies using genetic algorithm. The user first records a melody, and then acts as a fitness function by rating the harmonies. It is a little finicky but I had fun making it!

Looking forward to seeing friends and colleagues in Edmonton this week for AIIDE! I'll be trying my hand at live tweeting the paper sessions at both the main conference and EXAG/INT, which I'll try to keep in this big reply thread (starting off tomorrow). @aiide.bsky.social @exag.bsky.social

Last week I did a game jam where our aim was to focus solely on Juice. Something that I learnt was how important juice is to communicate speed. Effects like increasing FOV, adding speed lines, and tilting the camera slightly can have a huge effect on the game feel. spiderassassin.itch.io/bubble-run
