This project is based on the automatic generation of music, guided (conditioned) by the color harmony of a color palette or a picture. The generation of music is done in three steps: 1. Extraction of relevant features from an image or a color palette. 2. Mapping of these features into parameters for controlling the music generator. 3. Automatic music generation, based on a set of input parameters that control the harmonicity of the resulting composition.
