Last night’s jazz gig went well. Given that I’ve not done a lot of double bass practise recently I was pleased that my fingers didn’t fall off and that, musically, it went very well. I think that is evidence of how a lot of musical experience is transferable – although I haven’t been building the specific motor skills and endurance around the double bass, I have been building my musicality with plenty of time on other instruments.
Meanwhile though, here is a video I came across today that shows how AI generation of images can be both quite impressive and wildly off the mark:
I’ve not played in a classical orchestra but I’m pretty sure that isn’t how that kind of gig is meant to go!
