Welcome to the first episode of the Aaron Horn Podcast. This series will showcase Aaron's collaborators and people he admires. With the aim to provide a fully rounded story of all involved, and a real focus on the positive effects of sound music and the mind and body. The shows will delve deep into topics such as AI, psychedelics, music and its effects on the brain, NFTs, Quantum Physics, growing up in London, race and sound healing.

In this episode Aaron is joined by Artist, Musician and Author of Ecstatic Data Sets, Sam Potter. Aaron and Sam will be talking about Sam's book Ecstatic Data Sets: The Chorismos Apeiron Scanner (2028 Edition). A main focus of this episode is AI creativity, the relationship between technology and art, Sam’s amazing Dream Machine where he deployed AI programs to interpret his dreams and explored how this can then be transposed into music. Listeners are challenged and inspired as Sam and Aaron raise and analyse topics including, Data Sonification –taking information or stats and transposing them into musical systems, ‘If it’s possible to use AI to make people feel like they are dreaming when awake?’, What would happen if we softened the boundary between conscious and unconsciousness?’ and ‘how can a sunset could be turned into a piece of music using AI?’

Sam Potter made the videos for Aaron's Speaking to Silence piano series using AI.
