 +== some comments and questions ==
 +
 +gleb - clarify "intentions"
 +
 +ivan - in recorded work, is the algorithm an indirect or direct affector... talked about turning points, music seemed "more formal" than the live recording, the album with fis sounded more like recordings of live performances
 +
 +ivan - if it's all about affect, the algorithm is an affector, made me think about the manipulating the perception, now i see a practice ot use algorithm as an attempt to have more control on music perception
 +
 +ivan - choosing an algorithm, still manipulating yourself, 
 +
 +olga - ai, neural network, representing human ethic problems, reflecting on it and talking about it is one of the solutions, agreed with the media representation of AI, more open and wide discussion it would help
 +
 +ivan - what do you htink about the future of this kind of culture
 +
 +ivan - new extensions, a screen with code, maybe in the future there will be some new kinds of extensions for affecting perception
 +
 +gleb - overview of algorithmic music (musicians, techniques, concepts)
 +
 +vlad - when we learn max and PD, the main thing we learned were creating thigns that are not really difficult and sequencing, like pd but only making sequencers, to make cool sounds it takes a lot of time, hear examples from you how to make it easier to generate complex timbres
 +
 +ivan - learn some warping techniques, interesting techniques of working with samples
 +
 +maria - worried she is slow, and just wants to get the method
 +
 +vlad - how to prepare a big live set in terms of strategy and logic
 +
 +olga - i have lots of struggle with live, i want to control everything, i need some freedom, how to control the parameters
 +
 +maria - inspiriring to hear about poetic text while algorithmic coding, when you interact with people 
 +
 +vlad - maybe i know some examples of other ways to communicate with audience, but not text, maybe sensors, or not with one human or the whole dancefloor, source to take information to generate other things, data sonification, data sonification with feedback is more interesting
