OpenAI’s first Sora AI generated music video called ‘Worldweight’ was supposed to capture the images a musician visualized in their mind while composing the piece. It’s not particular good, more of a pretentious art student’s fever dream.

Previous attempts were better. This video from 2022 used Dall-E to create a video for the song Canvas by Resonate:

But Sora is capable of more. Indie artist Washed Out used Sora to create an interesting video called “The Hardest Part” that tried to explore the idea of an infinite zoom that would have been too ambitious. I think it came out pretty good:

Or maybe you’d like to try out some of the other top AI music video generators yourself (Neural Frames and Kaiber)?

Synthet has a set of fun music/mixing tutorials in which he teaches his various editing and tweaking techniques using the very techniques to do the teaching. They’re really creative and enjoyable. Give one a listen:

Welcome to 6:47 of complete, bonkers industrial music played by the experimental music group Einstürzende Neubauten. Formed in West Berlin in 1980, here they are in 1984 playing on piles of junk in a piece they called ‘Autobahn’. Scraping steel, chainsaws, grinders, and screaming. Just what’s you expect from a 1980’s German punk/industrial/what-the-heck-was-that band.

What are they doing now? One member became a music lawyer/label owner, and others are still doing the ‘art’:

Roger Waters was one of the creative geniuses behind Pink Floyd. As time went on, he ended up in a feud with David Gilmour and the band split – but he did do other work on his own.

Before he left Pink Floyd, they produced one more album: The Final Cut which was plagued by internal band conflict and was mostly material not used in The Wall. David Gilmour felt many of the tracks were not worthy of inclusion and is generally considered fairly poor by fans. After that, Waters left Pink Floyd.

Rogers then went on to a solo career. One of his first albums, in which you’ll hear tons of lyrical and thematic echos of The Wall is his album ‘The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking”

I’m including a link to the whole album because the cover art is NSFW.

Haloasis is an interesting device that uses a rapidly spinning LED bar to produce a constantly changing display inside a clear plastic tube. It seems geared towards creatively displaying lyrics from your music. It’s not even in kickstarter yet, but it’ll be interesting to see how they do. I’m curious how loud it is, because these devices are never exactly quiet due to the high RPM spinning LED bars.

I think it could be more cool as a display for interesting information since my karaoke skills are less than amazing.
