It's always amazing to see a person discuss a topic that they are truly passionate about, you can see it particularly around the 10:00 minute mark in his explanation.
Bob, you sure know how to pick 'em. Another win for TDC, with the selection of another fantastic artist & Obi-Wan Rogosin's ability to make the sound translate so well it feels like its not coming from my simple computer speakers! Bravissimo!!!
Wow, fascinating project! Love the polarisation which is inherent in music and seeing it in a visual context aswell as the audio experience, had no idea a piano could do that, it's very cool how technology is becoming more and more integrated into a musical performance.
WHoα this was awesome even if you could not see the visualizations, Pen one hand ✍️ , tiny journaling 📓 in the other, letting your own mind wander, divining the recesses of mind and body synapses, guiding the ouija_ic like a one lone man operett_ic ouija tactilliation Suede of the blues clarity
I'm not sure if this was answered, but do the keys that react to his actions respond with the same force? or is it strictly digital and recognizes a press or non press?
"Strictly digital" doesn't have to mean binary. MIDI has provided for 128 levels of velocity since at least the 80s, so that would be the bare minimum resolution for something like this I'd say. What's heard in the clip pretty much confirms this. The notes the program is playing clearly vary indynamics.
I really love tiny desk! If you could have the band Good Morning play that would be awesome! i dont know if you guys take requests like that but i think they would be great for this platform and theres no good live footage of them!! pls do!
First and foremost a great pianist, but to the have the brain to add all that extra... just amazing. Would love to see how other artists would respond to this technology, Brad Mehldau obviously, but Thom Yorke, Nahre Sol, Jacob Collier to name a few.
The idea to incorporate all the algorithmic interaction & visualization stuff is great and pretty novel, I'm not trying to minimize that, but techy stuff like that really isn't that hard to get into if anyone has an interest in it. There are so many tools out there today that simplify the pipelines to get it all going, that anyone with an idea can realistically implement it without devoting a decade of their life to studying how (: It's a lot more intimidating at face-value than it is difficult, once you get down to it.
Does anyone know how I can implement similar algorithms but with a midi controller ?, I saw another video where the supercollider screen is seen but I don't know if this is how it creates them, does anyone know something or if it can be done and how can it be done in max?
From what my pea-brain could gather- he wrote multiple programs that cause the piano to respond in particular ways in real time. Each song is showcasing a different rule-set.
Everyone gangsta till the piano starts playing itself
“I like to think of music as Living at the intersection of algorithmic and spiritual”. I love this!
i'm so happy this exists
I was with my mouth open watching the shapes. just wow.

Tiny Desk does it again! Jazz is always on another level, a different plane. This ain't no top 40 pop music, it's way beyond that!
Like Top100? /s
Nah I prefer to listen to other musical genres (with less arrogant people)
@@mrkeng1 Such as?
Actually you don't need to announce it like it's a big deal
@@mrkeng1 Well that statement certainly had no arrogance to it did it?
This is amazing. It's neat to hear him humming too.
When Tiny Desk meets TED Talks 🤘
Gorgeous, fun and I love the name. Bravo, Dan.
when he clicks four times with one hand and five times with the other .... that is a talented man 😂😂
@9:42
the word genius gets thrown around a lot, but Dan truly warrants the title. mesmerizing performance. thanks tiny desk for curating this!
And he's got a degree in astrophysics too... some people are too talented!
Did he write all these?

This is both fascinating and beautiful. So flipping cool!
very cool...love the visual of the audible geometry
this was genuinely fascinating to watch and equally enjoyable to listen to.
Beyond brilliant! Gorgeous!
What a mind, what an ear. Quarantine could not be better. Thank you.
Not only is the music beautiful, but the program visuals are also beautiful!
NPR, thank you very much for giving him and his instrument the platform.
Imagine Ludovico Einaudi collaborating with Dan Tepfer... sweet dream
Amazing. Congrats Dan!
Amazing, incredible, fantastic!!
Wow, fascinating project! Love the polarisation which is inherent in music and seeing it in a visual context aswell as the audio experience, had no idea a piano could do that, it's very cool how technology is becoming more and more integrated into a musical performance.
A perfect example of humans and technology working together in a positive way 🙂
You blew me away Dan! Such a cool musical performance and so visually enchanting. Nicely done!! 🙏☺
Amazing. Tiny Desk always upping their game.
It’s a fascinating cross-pollination of Acoustic and electric old school and high tech . Tonality and atonality , it’s very complex and interesting .
Very cool. I love smart, creative people. And the graphics are a trip.
I feel like all I can say is thank you
Guy is way too smart for this world. Amazing!
i really enjoyed this trip! thanks
This man’s a genius.
very engaging...very creative..kudos!
Totally mesmerizing
That was incredible!
Wow!!! great project, awesome improvisations and graphics! Completely different aproach of music.
I like this version of the future :)
He's going to make the universe explode!
lovely playing conceptual breadth and interesting moving music
This is exactly what I want at 5am.
I slightly understanding what is contemporary music and how it works! WOW it’s awsome
he is a wizard
Amazing!
Wow, that's amazing! So interesting and so beautiful!
Someone should show this guy lights that change to music. It would probably make his week.
As someone who's worked as an audiovisual tech, I choked so hard with laughter!
heh I'm using app, while listening to this
love it

Incredible!
Fantastique , j, adore bravo.
botw vibes for sure. get this dude on the team for the next game this is super impressive
my first thought listening to this
Breath of The Wild, for those unaware, one of the entries in the Legend of Zelda game series.
Thought the same when I heard the first piece. Last one sounds very much like a battle theme.
Absolutely fascinating
Awesome!
¡Ah!... ¡Maestro 🎵! Qué buena calidad interpretativa y buen gusto 💕. Felicidades
Cool vibes bro
awesome
Vu hier en concert à la maison de l’océan, alors que j’étais venu pour l’autre partie ; découverte et fascinant !
lo mejor que veo desde hace tiempo los NPR TINY DESK CONCERT. Hagan uno con Frusciante por favoooorrr!!!
Reminds me of the one with Ólafur Arnalds. But I love the visual design!
love it!!
Genius
That was cool!
This is like the first minutes of DISNEY Fantasia (the visualization of the music) ♥️
I was sold after the 1st 5 seconds
thank you , would love to hear you in person ,...
Obviously a crazy genius
He's printing complex sounds....nuts
Get Say Anything. Everyone would love it.
I'd love to see Dan and Steve Reich together one day. Amazing performance!

Omg,Brad Mehldau & this Set Up...

TriadSculpture reminds me of the later stuff from Esbjörn Svensson Trio.
I accidentally clicked on this and I am not disappointed.
Wow
nice ted talk here
We see you Casper,, nobody's fooled!
🔥🔥
Very innovative and challenging to still do music with a twist
Grateful for the auto play that bright me here
🤯🤯 what in the world...
Amazing.... Sigh... Thank you.

Jacob Collier was the first person I thought of

LOVE XXX
Dude invented the visualizer from windows media player
Bill Laurance needs a Tiny Desk ASAP.
This is so underrated, 45,752 views in 4 days. smh, as soon as they hear jazz or classical they just stop watching
❤❤❤

How do some keys play themselves?
looks close to DNA with the models, can you backwards engineer DNA to a sound then?
weirdly, unravelling dna sequences and reinterpreting them as musical notes is actually "old hat" in the algorithmic music circles.
Get Robin Fox and his lasers on Tiny Desk
Did he program the piano to play certain parts? I don't understand
From what my pea-brain could gather- he wrote multiple programs that cause the piano to respond in particular ways in real time. Each song is showcasing a different rule-set.
Teknowloooogiiieeee
@adamneely what you think
That piano 🧐🧐🧐
Did he write all these pieces?
@11:00 This should be called the Radiohead algorithm.
that's so fucking cool
You should get AJR !,!
You like jazz?
Nope
