Aspects Involved

Music

• In the words of Plato

  Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.

• In the words of Billy Joel

  I think music in itself is healing. It’s an explosive expression of humanity. It’s something we are all touched by. No matter what culture we’re from, everyone loves music.

• In the words of Albert Schweitzer

  There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats.

Artificial Intelligence

• Machine learning for Facial recognition

Awesome UI

• Beauty ain't always a little, cute colored flower. Beauty is anything where people be like, 'Damn.'

• In the words of Yajana

  When I admire the wonders of an Application or the beauty of the UI, my soul expands in the worship of the creator

Pre-alpha release

The current version is a pre-alpha early access. Some of it is usable, some of it isn't. If there are things that don't work as expected or are counterintuitive, please open an issue so I can prioritize working on them.
