    ------------------------

    I have been collaborating with whales lately. Whales and AI. The results are haunting and weird, sometimes the whales sing like opera singers, sometimes there seem to be secret messages and meanings embedded in the sounds.

    So, how am I collaborating with whales and AI? As an example, it's like this:

    I created a composition themed on the idea of SORROW and then asked an Artificial Intelligence to explore the song and create a new composition
    using only whale song. This was the result:

    Mournful Whales

    Then, I created a composition themed on EXTINCTION and asked an Artificial Intelligence to explore the song and create a new composition using only
    whale song. This was the result:

    Haunted Whales
    https://bbmc.bandcamp.com/track/haunted-whales

    Finally, I took the composition Haunted Whales, created by the AI, and asked the AI to explore its own composition and create a new song using only music from my Liz Solo Alien album. This was the result:

    Haunted Liz

    These experiments are part of my latest project "Metacreation in NEOS VR",
