I was inspired by your comment and took a look at Daniel's work.

Forked it and spent the day upgrade to Aesara (the maintained Theano fork) and python3.

Haven't fully trained/tested the model, but feel free to take a look: https://github.com/kpister/biaxial-rnn-music-composition

Whoa, thanks! You could try issuing a pull request once the work is complete. Most likely the author will accept it, or else it can linger as an "open" request on github and others might find it.

Also, the old version could use a special incantation:

  theano.config.experimental.unpickle_gpu_on_cpu = True

to run CPU-based inference on a GPU-trained model, even without a supported hardware GPU. It would be nice to check how this stuff works with the newer packages, and document it properly. Most likely nothing much has changed.
