AI That Transforms Images into Music

On my way home, completely caught up in Thursday Campanella, I had completely forgotten about “PixTrax.” When I checked my phone and thought, “I wonder if it’s ready?” I couldn’t help but let out a surprised cheer.

It’s done!

The title is “Dancing Red Panda.” Ah, it seems the AI couldn’t fully recognize a red panda… but still, a red panda is quite impressive, I thought. Then I realized—red panda is actually the English name for a lesser panda. It’s completely mastered! And as for the melody, it’s a country-style track with male vocals, and it’s such a good song that it’s almost annoying. The fact that music like this can be created by AI was a huge shock to me.

At the same time, I thought about the artists I saw in the “Present” section of the exhibition—their passionate sounds, lyrics, and performances. I realized that it might be pointless to compare which is more impressive or right. Both are probably amazing in completely different ways, each in their own direction. It made me feel the vast depth of “music” once again—there is such a wide range of possibilities. In any case, PixTrax is a really clever tool, so I definitely recommend giving it a try.
