Thomas Bangalter's Post-Daft Punk Career: Ballet, AI, and Unmasked as a Composer.

TL;DR Summary
Thomas Bangalter, one half of the iconic electronic duo Daft Punk, has turned his hand to ballet scoring with his latest project, Mythologies. The ballet premiered in France last year and is now being released as an album. Bangalter's score is a mix of ancient and modern approaches, with each of the 16 separate "frescos" requiring its own musical setting. In a recent interview, Bangalter expressed his concerns about the rise of Artificial Intelligence and the "obsolescence of man". He also revealed that Daft Punk's central thesis was that the line between humanity and technology should remain absolute.
