A poem I wrote Originally published here as a poem in September 2023 and written Context and Intention - Artimus  Susan Manley (C) September 19, 2007

And once again... it makes a great song. It just takes finding the appropriate package. 

 

 

Context and intention made to add dimension To give arguments balance and a view For its where we are coming from that determine where we go and determine how we treat people too No one hears an argument that's meant to hurt and few validate intentions that are mean Life is not meant to be energy pettily spent and discussion that contains not a hill of beans If you engage and run into your rage that haze will forever control how you talk but if you engage and reach out to grasp you pull the other in with real thought For no one person is wholly right nor the other wholly wrong but you surely gain more opponents with smoke and steam And you attract more flies when you speak without lies and from the heart with an open mind For communication isnt unless its heard, acknowledged and returned and nothing gained by immature acting out A discussion after all Is rational dialog by all And a monolog is just a vent If you engage and run into your rage that haze will forever control how you talk but if you engage and reach out to grasp you pull the other in with real thought For no one person is wholly right nor the other wholly wrong but you surely gain more opponents with smoke and steam And you attract more flies when you speak without lies and from the heart with an open mind For communication isnt unless its heard, acknowledged and returned and returned nothing gained by immature acting out A discussion after all Is rational dialog by all And a monolog is just a vent and...

Last but not least, this song was constructed with these system prompts pop, rock, rap, psychedelic, blues, grunge, female vocals ( there are a few flaws in the vocals... but I forgave it ) I recently created my first duet . ( a challenge... the system can get confused.. ) Anyone that wants to follow more closely can find me as Artimus The Poet on Suno . com

Dear Susan, I enjoyed so much stopping by and listening to your beautiful song on communications and context. How wonderful. The words, music, and the performance. What software and hardware do you use to record and mixdown. Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

I construct using my desktop computer which is a PC. Suno is a website, and they have a window you can cut and paste the lyric into and then set system prompts ( setting vocal style, musical interludes, drum solos, your imagination is your limit, learn from other musicians) You can use it from any MAC or PC. Suno does work on modern IOS and Android but I can't imagine its near as easy with less screen real estate and touch typing. Some people are constructing lyric with Chat GPT or in some cases uses it to edit or expand their lyric ( I write poetry .. have since the 80s and this is all my original work and I expand it myself to create bridge, outro and name the chorus... etc ).

And if you are teaching yourself or your students.. this article Complete List of Prompts & Styles for Suno AI Music (2024) by Travis Nicholson is gold for a list of what is possible on Suno. ( there are other AI music places... they all have merit and flaws... but Suno is the best).

Hey Daniel, it would take a long time to create all of this music if I was working it out on my own electronics at home. Or with a band. This is my poem ( and almost exactly the same poem that I wrote in 2007 ) and I put it into Suno . com.

I then try it out with various musical combination possibilities and listen for things that work with the mood I am trying to convey. I then download the WAVs and master them on Bandlab . com. I pay for the professional tools there. I am working to publish my music now and it will appear on Tik Tok and then up on Spotify and Pandora and the like and be for sale as well. It will also be available to be licensed.  And that ... is my full business plan and release tool chain in a nutshell. ( Oh I can edit WAVs in camtasia my video editing tool and there are tools for editing the various tracks ( the STEMS) should I want to minorly alter what the machine spits out. BTW AI music creation is a bit like educated guess pachinko machine music creation. Its knowing a bit about what sounds good... and being able to hear it in your head. The philosophy poems are kinda fun music pieces.
