A library of gestural and harmonic material was created as the foundation for the AI's learning during several rehearsals and improvisations. In the current performance, the AI continues to learn dynamically in real-time from the pianist, who responds to the AI's outputs, which are played on a player piano. This results in a rich feedback loop of stimuli, where the gestural library and live stimuli processes operate simultaneously.
