AI generated podcast Google Notebook LM spooky New Breakthrough

Season 6 · Episode 1

Saturday, October 5, 2024 • Duration 16:54

This was a mind blowing find and rekindled my interest in extending this podcast of mine a little more, so I might start it up again. I discovered you can use a new tool in the Google AI experimental notebook area called "Notebook LM" Excercising my sense of irony I asked ChatGPT about it and it responded Google's NotebookLM (formerly called Project Tailwind) is an experimental AI tool designed to help users with note-taking, organization, and summarization. It leverages large language models (LM) like those powering Google’s AI systems to generate insights, summaries, and connections from a user's notes and documents.

Scot "I heard that while washing the dishes and had to reach out to Jordan and discuss the process of using sonification techniques in new radio journalism. She also has this great piece What sound does a volatile stock market make? that is very interesting. I had some technical problems with my side of the recording but Jordan was so fascinating it was worth salvaging the interview."

Dolores Catherino - PolyChromatic Composer and Multi-Instrumentalist

Season 5 · Episode 1

Tuesday, March 5, 2019 • Duration 31:55

DOLORES CATHERINO and host Scot Gresham-Lancaster about the use of a technique called Polychromatic composition that Dolores has identified and uses extensively in her work. Using specially modified keyboards with as many as 72 equal semitones per octave, she creates oceans of sound that sweep the listener into new territories. We discuss using these techniques as a new way to leverage the use of intonation to convey alert, alarm and evn emotional content to the listener by way of the intonational content of converting to these more finely tuned pitch schemas.

He had met her during a trip to MIT and thought that she might be an interesting person to interview for the "Sound and Data" channel. So this was a bit of a cold call since I was not that familiar with her work. It was amazing to find out the angle at which she is approaching this idea of "sound and data" which was so different from so many of my other guests. I was fascinated.
