The Unraveling

The Unraveling is an original piano composition by Kenneth Carlino. Bold, recurring phrases give way to an eerie sense of instability, tracing the unraveling of confidence into tragedy. Dramatic and unsettled, the music lingers between conviction and doubt. The piece was created with my proprietary procedural music-generation system, which composes and performs original MIDI music from programmed musical rules and a deterministic seed. The system is not AI: it does not use machine learning, language models, training songs, or imitation of existing music.
