AUTOMATIC RAG

For this piece, I wanted to explore the idea of the self-playing piano, or player piano. The image of a piano playing with an empty bench brought up ideas of technology, automation and the automation of art. I was interested in the idea of the physical human being removed from the space, replaced by advancements in technology.
