Thank you for your thoughtful comment! This is by no means a product, it's more of a way for me to test an idea and share it with the community.

This demo is meant for small audio samples. My initial goal was to use it to visualize and compare drum samples by looking at their 'spatial signature'.

Right now, I'm using arbitrarily defined 'shapes' (sphere and tube) but the goal is to recover those from real-world data. Unfortunately, building the appropriate data-set and the model to go with it is currently out of my reach but I know that's how my brain sort of learned these audio/spatial associations.

In order for this to work on complete tracks, I would need to add source separation, transcription and some form of information compression.

Additionally, I'm working on ways to deal with richer sounds, by laying them out in space or by splitting them into 'voices of unison'. Here's a demo of what it would look like: https://imgur.com/gallery/gkFPXXu

There are two directions I could take this, either making music from interacting with spatial representations or building spatial representations from music. I don't have the bandwidth to do both alone so I would love to work on it with other developers.
