# Affective TTS / SoundScapes

  - [SHIFT TTS tool](https://github.com/audeering/shift) 
  - Analysis of emotionality [#1](https://huggingface.co/dkounadis/artificial-styletts2/discussions/2)
  - Soundscapes `trees, water, castles` via [AudioGen](https://huggingface.co/dkounadis/artificial-styletts2/discussions/3)
  - `landscape2soundscape.py` shows how to overlay TTS & sound to image and create video

```
virtualenv --python=python3 ~/.envs/.my_env
source ~/.envs/.my_env/bin/activate
cd shift/
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

Start Flask

```
CUDA_DEVICE_ORDER=PCI_BUS_ID HF_HOME=./hf_home CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=2 python api.py
```

## Landscape 2 Soundscape

The following needs `api.py` to be already running `on a tmux session`. 

```python
# TTS & soundscape - overlay to .mp4
python landscape2soundscape.py
```
