Hmm... Looks nice.
Since the original post, I realized I can use this for my AI
research paper, so I think I'm going to create a mp3 control
system. If it works well, feel free to add it into Obsequieum.
It will probably just be a perl or tcl/tk or python script,
with some sort of simple GUI and database access.
:)
Anyway, I'd love ideas for inputs to the system. So far I
have...
- "karma" points (user's musical preference)
- file access dates (older is better)
- file creation dates (newer is better)
- time of day (slow down at night?)
- relative song position (song X sounds good after song Y, but
clashes with song Z, etc...)
- play history (karma points over time may average into a
better value than raw points)
With any luck, I'll be able to convince a neural net to merge
all these things into a somewhat intelligent decision about
what to play next. At this point, though, I still have to
figure out if I can make it work at all...
