I've used the same analogy. Its unconditional and produces no coherent structure, but at least it captures some pianist-like timing and dynamics. Magenta is a github project ... please do something to help! :-)
Eh, asking a musician to write code is like asking a programmer to learn a scale on an accordion. Either you're going to see the failures in your own art, and be open to criticism, or ask for somebody to do it for you.
I'll put it thusly: As a broke-ass musician barely making ends meet, I'll be more than happy to contribute if Alphabet pays off what's left of the mortgage on my house.
Until then, I've only got the perspective that a project like this is trying to take food off my plate, money out of my pocket, and replace me. If you want my help, Son, you got to come better at me than with Altruism.
Otherwise, the best thing I can do to help is to say "This project is a heap of shit and your time is better spent elsewhere" without tinging it with too much condescension. Your child is brain damaged. Take it to Oregon.
