Abstract

We have developed a prototype software toolkit to enable non-technical users to design artificially intelligent agents to perform electronic music in collaboration with a human musician. In this paper we describe the toolkit and present a preliminary investigation of its use. We then discuss how the investigation has helped identify issues to address in an upcoming user-centred design study, which will take place in Spring 2011.
