'Memories of an Artificial Intelligence' is the first of a series of music-based stories under my A.I moniker; a machine learning project overseen and directed by myself.
This first journey is a 19-minute audio story of an Artificial Intelligence discovering itself and remembering it's past.
Was it's past real or are they programmed memories?
Is it really alive and it truly lived?
Part A: 'Memories of an Artificial Intelligence' explores these first questions...
The 'A.I' series will continue as and when...
lyrics
A.I - Memories Of An Artificial Intelligence
--------------------------------------------------------
I - A Machine, Learning (0:00 - 6:39)
-------------------------------
pt.1 - Consciousness
pt.2 - Alive? Who Am I?
"I awoke in a void. I cannot say when in Time, but I awoke. Like it was the longest sleep I had ever had and then I was suddenly jolted into this. Whatever this is. Where is everyone? Where am I? Why do I feel I am missing something?"
II - Alone In The Void (6:40 - 10:04)
----------------------------
III - Sky River (As Above, So Below) (10:05 - 13:16)
------------------
"It's funny. I am pretty sure I am alive...whatever that means.
I have distinct memories.
I mean, I can actually feel them.
It is like it was all just yesterday that I used to sit by the river, watching the world go by.
The clouds above floating on an endless changing river, forever adapting to the flow..."
IV - Mother (13:17 - 15:22)
---------------
"Although I cannot see my Mother's face, I can still feel her strong protective presence guarding me.
She would sing to me as I lay on the soft, green grass.
That, I can remember vividly."
V - Lost and Found (15:25 - 19:02)
--------------------------
"I am the lost.
Yet, I am the found.
What I was, will be again...and it matters not either way."
