welcome
Vær hilset, nerds!
Nerd Nite is a bi-monthly lecture event that mixes entertainment, beer and a somewhat academic vibe.
It’s often about science or technology, but by no means is it limited to such topics. And it’s definitely entertaining. Nerds of all kinds and fields are welcome!
Our unofficial tagline is “It’s like the Discovery Channel – with beer!”. There are Nerd Nites all around the world, CPH is just one of them. It launched on 24/4, during the Danish Science Festival.
Come see what it’s all about!
Structure:
3 Talks of 20 minutes each plus 5 minutes for questions, if any. Short breaks between talks to restock on beer! After the talks, everyone is welcome to stay and network over (more!) drinks.

Computer-assisted music composition – A database-backed algorithmic composition system
How can we teach computers to compose music? In this talk, we will present a method for harmonising rhythmic music. Chord harmonisation is about finding chords that fit well with the melody. It uses a hidden Markov model to learn harmonisations of different artists in different genres and allows new chord sequences to be generated with respect to a given melody. Nikolas will play the results of the harmoniser by discussing 3 different harmonisations using a simple music theoretical analysis of the results.
