Lemongrass and Bass: A Thai Recipe for AI Music • Dive into a groundbreaking hybrid talk and music performance that reimagines, celebrates, and challenges Thai culture through the cutting edge of machine learning and electronic bass/dance music.
Led by Lamtharn “Hanoi” Hantrakul, a Bangkok-born AI Research Scientist and visionary AI Sound Artist, this session explores how advanced AI can amplify Southeast Asia’s rich musical heritage.
With over eight years in the US and Chinese tech scenes, developing state-of-the-art Generative AI models for giants like Google and TikTok, Hanoi brings a unique blend of technical mastery and artistic innovation. Known on the electronic music scene as “ญาบอยฮานอย yaboiHanoi,” he fuses traditional Thai tunings and rhythms with futuristic soundscapes, earning international acclaim — including winning the 2022 AI Song Contest with his epic track “อสุระเทวะชุมนุม Enter Demons and Gods.”
Join us to experience a visionary fusion of culture, technology, and bass — where AI isn’t just a tool, but a creative partner in pushing the boundaries of music and identity in the digital age.
