@imanimosley YES I suppose this is part of the whole not bothering with the text or timbre when doing computational stuff too.

The UBC VanLab is looking for participants for an online experiment on rhythmic complexity! The experiment should take ~20-30 minutes, and asks you to rate the perceived complexity of rhythmic patterns. If you are 18+ with normal hearing, please click the link in the last tweet.

Nothing can stop me from pronouncing shutil.rmtree "Shuttle Remtree" in my head, and thinking that it sounds like a rather nice name for a hobbit...

@_akpiper @evoluchico Definitely! but ML often ends up simply externalizing that bias and making the process *seem* fairer ("we're not racist, but the algorithm said...") rather than actually eliminating or accounting for bias. People wash their hands of responsibility while maintaining status quo.

@evoluchico to be fair I think a lot of hiring is done based on whether the candidate played lacrosse.

serious question: would an algorithm be "fairer" in terms of grading student papers than a prof? We have moods, fatigue, random variance, favouritism, etc. Wouldn't an ML model be more reliable?

It turns out I am angry enough about this article I need to switch from phone to laptop! Let's dissect this quote, “They tired of care-taking, even though this involved little more than continuing to host the project files on a server.” Firstly... 1/

@ismir2021 of course!! seemed silly to start from scratch every year for such a longstanding conference so I'm glad it worked out! ✨

@simssaproject Hey!! Thank you so much for the handoff from #ISMIR2020 and for allowing us to use it for #ISMIR2021. Without you, the followers of this account would be this big. So, thank you once again!❤️

Hi #ismir2021!! Realizing I was too busy running the #ismir2020 handle last year to follow ISMIR ppl with this account 🤦🏻‍♀️! playing catch-up today and it's great to see all your updates!

RTing for the considerable overlap in chant/medieval nerds and metalheads out there! \m/-_-\m/

very glad to see this topic getting some coverage @AMS_musicology !
