Active: None

Preset overlays sit on top of your base styles without overwriting them.

Texture is the ambient glue: pads, drones, shimmer, and slow color so the band does not sound like dry MIDI. Edits save to public/personas.json.

Current stream recording

A single growing recording from the active generator session appears here.

Previous generated runs

Every generator run is archived as an MP3 plus MIDI/WAV/state files.

About / Disclaimer

MuzAIk is a Resoworks project for the AIPS Summit: Muzak refracted through AI, a meditation on The Chinese Room and on LLM systems as procedural imitations of understanding.

The original experiment has been adapted into an ongoing radio station where listeners can vote on what style the next two minutes should emulate.

Experiment questions: how many cycles does it take for an agent to capture a style in a prompt; how long before the style collapses; and how long can a human listen before the loop becomes aesthetically unstable?

1. How many cycles does it take for an agent to capture a style in a prompt?

2. How long before the style collapses?

3. How long can a human listen before the loop becomes aesthetically unstable?

Collapse is behavioral. If people stop tuning in, voting, or settle into believing the copy is close enough, the system has found its middle ground.
