This project uses generative AI tools to make music and visuals. This page explains the intent and the boundaries. For the actual creative process and how authorship works, see Method.
What this project is
Automated Planetary Audio is a one-person hobby project where the story comes first. Every track starts with a human impulse — a theme, a character, a line that needs to exist — and generative tools help turn that impulse into a finished song. It is not a band and not a touring act.
Boundaries
- No deliberate voice cloning of identifiable individuals.
- No prompts targeting a specific artist — no "in the style of X", no attempts to replicate a signature sound.
- No photorealistic visuals. Artwork is intentionally stylized so nothing looks like a real person or a real band.
- Prompts describe characteristics, not names. You can find the primary generation prompt on each song's detail page.
Important nuance
Generative tools can sometimes produce voices or styles that resemble real people by coincidence. The intent is to avoid targeting anyone specific. If something sounds or looks too close to an identifiable artist, I treat that as a signal to regenerate or change direction.
Why this exists
If AI-made music is not your thing, that is completely fine — you do not have to like it or listen. This is one person experimenting with a new kind of instrument to tell stories. Distribution, hosting, and tools cost money, and the time spent is not "paid back". The point is expression and sharing, not a cash-grab.
