Meaning of algorave | Babel Free

Noun CEFR B2
/ˈæl.ɡəˌɹeɪv/

Definitions

An event where people dance to music generated from algorithms, often improvised on the spot (live coding).

Examples

“In London, the music veers between the sublime and the cacophonic; at the end, one audience member—and she's entirely serious—shouts: “Play something good!” Algorave is messy, but that's partly the point: these are not the pristine algorithms that fetch your search results on Google; they're built live, for a crowd.”
