Patent number: 11978426Abstract: A generative composition system reduces existing musical artefacts to constituent elements termed “Form Atoms”. To provide myriad new composition, a set of heuristics ensure that musical textures between concatenated musical sections follow a supplied and defined briefing narrative for the new composition whilst contiguous concatenated Form Atoms are also automatically selected to see that similarities in respective and identified attributes of musical textures for those musical sections are maintained to support maintenance of musical form. Independent aspects of the disclosure further ensure that, within the composition work, such as a media product or a real-time audio stream, chord spacing determination and control practiced to maintain musical sense in the new composition. Further, a structuring of primitive heuristics operates to maintain pitch and permit key transformation.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2021Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: DAACI LIMITEDInventor: Joseph Michael William Lyske

Patent number: 11887568Abstract: The disclosed generative composition system produces a composition to a briefing that describes a musical journey in emotional descriptions. The composition is assembled from concatenated interchangeable Form Atoms “FAs” selectable by tags aligning emotional descriptions with respective compositional heuristics. Each FA has self-contained constructional properties representative of an historical musical corpus. These heuristics support generation of chords, in chord schemes of musical tonics, achieving an equivalent form function. Each FA also includes chord spacer heuristics that temporally space generated chords across a defined musical window, and a chord list in a local tonic defining branching structures giving options for generating different chords. A progression descriptor, in combination with a form function, expresses musically a question, an answer or a statement, with each FA creating a meta-map of a chord scheme for a musical section.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2022Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: DAACI LIMITEDInventor: Joseph Michael William Lyske

Patent number: 11842710Abstract: A processor-based method of producing a generative musical composition is disclosed herein. The method includes the step of receiving a briefing narrative which describes a musical journey by referencing a plurality of emotional descriptions related to a plurality of musical sections. The generative musical composition is assembled with regard to the briefing narrative through the selection and concatenation of Form Atoms with tags that align with the emotional descriptions related to the musical sections. The Form Atoms, which have compositional nature aligned with the emotional descriptions and self-contained constructional properties representative of the historical corpus of music, are then selected and substituted into the generative composition.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2022Date of Patent: December 12, 2023Assignee: DAACI LimitedInventor: Joseph Michael William Lyske

Publication number: 20230197041Abstract: A Form Atom defined by self-contained constructional properties representing a historical corpus of music and contained within metadata of the Form Atom is disclosed. The Form Atom has a generative set of heuristics to support generation of a set of chords in a chord scheme or many different sets of chords. The generated chords are spaced out within a defined window of musical time by chord spacer heuristics. The Form Atom has a tag describing its compositional heuristics. A chord list of the Form Atom is provided in local tonic and defines branching structures that may be used for the generation of different chords from the local tonic. A progression descriptor is combined with a form function such that the Form Atom expresses musically a question, an answer and a statement. A meta-map of a chord scheme for a musical section is created from the metadata.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 18, 2022Publication date: June 22, 2023Applicant: DAACI LimitedInventor: Joseph Michael William LYSKE

Publication number: 20230186881Abstract: A generative composition system reduces existing musical artefacts to constituent elements termed “Form Atoms”. These Form Atoms may each be of varying length and have musical properties and associations that link together through Markov chains. To provide myriad new composition, a set of heuristics ensures that musical textures between concatenated musical sections follow a supplied and defined briefing narrative for the new composition whilst contiguous concatenated Form Atoms are also automatically selected to see that similarities in respective and identified attributes of musical textures for those musical sections are maintained to support maintenance of musical form. Independent aspects of the disclosure further ensure that, within the composition work, such as a media product or a real-time audio stream, chord spacing determination and control are practiced to maintain musical sense in the new composition.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 18, 2022Publication date: June 15, 2023Applicant: DAACI LimitedInventor: Joseph Michael William LYSKE

Publication number: 20230146658Abstract: A computer-implemented method of generating a musical composition containing a plurality of musical texture groups is disclosed. The method includes assembling musical texture groups from musical instrument components and associating therewith a tag expressing emotional textural connotation. The instrument components have musical textural classifiers selected from a set of pre-defined textural classifiers such that different instrument components may have a different subset of pre-defined textural classifiers. The textural classifiers within a texture group possess either no musical feature attribute or a single musical feature attribute and any number of musical accompaniment attributes. The method then generates at least one chord scheme to a narrative brief, to provide an emotional connotation to a series of events, the chord scheme generated by selecting and assembling Form Atoms.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 18, 2022Publication date: May 11, 2023Applicant: DAACI LimitedInventor: Joseph Michael William LYSKE

Patent number: 11514877Abstract: A generative composition system reduces existing musical artefacts to constituent elements termed “Form Atoms”. These Form Atoms may each be of varying length and have musical properties and associations that link together through Markov chains. To provide myriad new composition, a set of heuristics ensures that musical textures between concatenated musical sections follow a supplied and defined briefing narrative for the new composition whilst contiguous concatenated Form Atoms are also automatically selected to see that similarities in respective and identified attributes of musical textures for those musical sections are maintained to maintain good musical form. Within the composition work, chord spacing and control are practiced to maintain musical sense in the new composition and a primitive heuristics structure maintains pitch and permits key transformation.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2022Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: DAACI LimitedInventor: Joseph Michael William Lyske
