An artificial intelligence that composes and plays live music but which by asking too much of itself, overheats and glitches all the time.

The work is presented in the form of a video installation projected on a screen, the audio part played live by the AI ​​is the result of the training of a neural network on all of Ravel's solo piano works while the visual part is the manifestation of visual glitch and glitch generated by this process. The work is a tribute to the composer Maurice Ravel and his solo piano pieces which have the theme of the ocean, as well as to Alessandro Baricco and his book with the same title, Oceano Mare.

The neural network of the work was trained by listening for several weeks to a dataset including among others works by Maurice Ravel, Lili Boulanger and Claude Debussy. It now creates works themself from what they have learned, so that each piece performed is unique, original, and testifies to an artistic creation detached from social norms.

The visual component of the work reflects another machine language, that of "glitch art" or the art of the bug. Who by his soft and irregular accoups, helps to deconstruct space to create a timeless safe-space.
