Crafting Musical Agents: Interactive Generation as a Catalyst for Artistic Formalization

Résumé

This paper presents an overview of a research-creation project conducted at Ircam over the past decade, aimed at designing libraries for the development of user-defined musical agents, within a performance-led and practice-based framework. It reflects on a set of research directions in generative music systems oriented toward co-specification, tunability, and the formalization of artistic reasoning. These insights draw from the experiences accumulated through the incremental design of Dicy2 and OpenTuning in collaboration with expert artists to outline possible orientations for future research in human–machine co-individuation within musical practice. These systems are approached not as autonomous generators, but as epistemic instruments—interfaces through which artistic thinking can be shaped, tested, and iteratively refined. Rather than focusing on creativity as surprise or stylistic reproduction, they emphasize the role of generative tools as catalysts for the externalization and evolution of compositional ideas.
