I am not interested in playing imitative beats that are on time when I
play piano. Or at least not always. Anyway I meant that it is a problem in
a mathematical/programmers sense.
Obviously you want the program to predict/anticipate somehow, but also to
be able to juggle different strategies while persuing them.
I am not that interested in a program that plays like a human, but I am
still discovering what a computer plays like.
