suno says its new "v6-wild" model makes user generations more "weird" & "wild". what could that mean? unpacking it in our new headlines ep. they also claim v6 is the first licensed model made after the Warner deal... but that it happens to also be trained on user "creations" made w the old model

STS folks, I'm organizing an open panel on CONTRAPTIONS for 4S this year, following up on a lovely panel at last year's AAA meetings. You should submit something if you got it! www.4sonline.org/accepted_ope...
“Technology” has a long and problematized relationship with progress, efficiency, and
efficacy. Sleek trains rushing through the countryside, the blinding reach of the electrical
grid, or the instantaneous messages of networked communication are its shiny avatars.
Contraptions, by contrast, are technical devices that barely work. They seem too complex,
too circuitous, too labor intensive. They are frequently ad hoc—as unrepeatable and
unreliable as Rube Goldberg’s fantastical machines. They push the received wisdom about
technology’s defining features to the limit. Like the aesthetic “gimmick” theorized by
Sianne Ngai, the contraption is a category charged with normative judgment. Contraptions
may work, but they don’t work right. While the contraption is commonly associated with
vernacular or retrograde alternatives to high technology, many “high tech” devices reveal a
contraption-like character on close inspection: AI chatbots, internet protocols, and
helicopters come to seem both over- and under-engineered the more attention is paid to
them.

This session invites STS scholars to think with the figure of the contraption: What
alternatives to popular ideas about technology do these complicated and unruly objects
offer? What is it about the present moment that pushes the contraption back into public
thought? How does the normativity of contraption judgments manifest in everyday life?

How do people come to perceive and evaluate technical complexity in social life? Work in
this area may draw on theories of gimmicks, hacks, kludges, workarounds, tricks, bricolage,
and other complex or informal technical activities.
