Remixing dylan lyrics with style using constrained markov process https://redylan.neocities.org
Redylan is an implementation of the research I did during my Ph.D. thesis. It uses artificial intelligence techniques to model the style of Bob Dylan as a mathematical model. Such a model can generate new lyrics in the style of Bob Dylan, controlled by high-level parameters (lyrics' theme and rhyme scheme) chosen by the user.
For more details about the algorithm, check this paper: Markov Constraints for Generating Lyrics with Style.
Redylan is single page application written in Vue.js. The particularity of Redylan is that it is a pure frontend application, meaning that there is not a backend server generating the lyrics. All the computations are done in your browser in a background thread by a dedicated web worker.
# install dependencies
npm install
# serve with hot reload at localhost:8080
npm run dev
# build for production with minification
npm run build
# build for production and view the bundle analyzer report
npm run build --report
For detailed explanation on how things work, checkout the guide and docs for vue-loader.
Redylan is hosted on the wonderful service Neocities. To deploy it you need to install the Neocities CLI.
Once the Neocities CLI is installed, you can either use the deployment script:
# Execute this script on the project root
./deploy.shor build and deploy the files manually:
# Go to the project root and erase the dist folder for a clean new build
rm -rf dist
# Build for production
npm run build
# Go inside the dist fodler
cd dist
# Delete older sources from neocities
neocities delete static
neocities delete *.worker.js
# Push the build
neocities push .
