Linear Singularity! World Premiere
/I am proud to present the world premiere performance of Linear Singularity by Andy Mitchell. This was originally performed for the Baltimore Classical Guitar Society in Spring 2021. "Linear Singularity is about the growth of Artificial Intelligence, as represented by music. If you’re unfamiliar, the Singularity is the event–sometime in the future–when AI will become more intelligent than humans. This composition depicts the calculated growth of AI into something fast, complex, and possibly threatening" - Andy Mitchell
This piece was kindly dedicated to Matt Palmer. Thanks Andy!
The sheet music for Linear Singularity is available directly from the composer - https://andymitchellguitar.com/
