I feel the futuristic relationship between technology and human in Dan Tepfer, a jazz pianist (4)
As I have been writing , I got the futuristic feeling equivalent to the concept of “human augmentation” when I watched Dan Tepfer, a jass pianist, was playing ad lib, and in response to that, the computer program written by him was automatically playing the piano keyboard (as if his third hand was playing). In other words, he played ad-lib, and continued the play expanding his ideas while listening to "the reflection from the algorithm". On the next day (June 5, 2019) I talked with Dan Tepfer, his piano trio had a live concert at Marunouchi Cotton Club in Tokyo. While listening to his play, I was thinking such things as, "corresponding to his complex and calculated rhythm would be difficult for the drummer and the bassist". Let's quote just pictures from his twitter to show the atomospher. Had an incredible time at @cottonclubjapan with @jorgeroeder and @natewoodmusic . Thanks for the welcome, Tokyo! And thanks Y.Yoneda for the pics. pic.twitter.com/jM8
