The AI Music Creativity (AIMC) conference originates from the integration of the Musical Metacreation (MuMe) workshop and the Computer Simulations of Musical Creativity (CSMC) conference. The computational simulation of musical creativity continues to be an exciting and significant area of academic research, and is now making impacts in commercial realms. Such systems pose several theoretical and technical challenges, and are the result of an interdisciplinary effort that encompasses the domains of music, artificial intelligence, design, cognitive science and philosophy. This can be seen within the broader realm which studies the design and use of such generative tools and theories for music making: discovery and exploration of novel musical styles and content, collaboration between human performers and creative software “partners”, and design of systems in gaming and entertainment that dynamically generate or modify music.
