Why this job: works in the areas we cover, but does not say which job it does
What it does
The Harmonic Algorithm system, intergrated with TidalCycles, generates musical harmony states inside user defined musical constraints, then ranks it using a tailored 'cube' of Markov Chain matrices trained on the Yale Classical Archives Corpus. This presents a unique tool in the hands of the composer or performer which can be used as a composing aid, analysis device, for instrumental study or even in live performance.
