Developed in 1986, "Magic Harp" was an early attempt at AI-like autonomous music generation. Israeli cartoonist Ya'akov Kirschen's idea was to extract three sorts of "musical DNA" from existing works, then recombine them to create new variations. His technology was used to help score a BBS TV documentary, and was covered by the New York Times and other major newspapers. The early Amiga versions of the software were never published, until they were recovered by the website breakintochat.com in 2024.
