Gibberwocky: new live-coding instruments for musical performance
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe two new versions of the gibberwocky live-coding system. One integrates with Max/MSP while the second targets MIDI output and runs entirely in the browser. We discuss commonalities and differences between the three environments, and how they fit into the live-coding landscape. We also describe lessons learned while performing with the original version of gibberwocky, both from our perspective and the perspective of others. These lessons informed the addition of animated sparkline visualizations depicting modulations to performers and audiences in all three versions.

The Threnoscope A Musical Work for Live Coding Performance
This paper introduces a new direction in the field of artistic live coding where musical works are presented as pieces in the form of a live coding system. The system itself and the code affordances become equivalent to score system in an open musical work for strong improvisation.
متن کاملCreating Ad Hoc Instruments with Pin&Play&Perform
Drawing from conceptual discussions and a reflection on extended techniques in musical performance, we offer the notion of an ‘ad hoc instrument’ as an instrument constructed during the course of interacting with it. To concretise the idea, we explore the utility of ‘Pin&Play’ technology where interface elements like dials, sliders and buttons are pinned to a conductive substrate. We describe a...
متن کاملInterfacing Sound: Visual Representation of Sound in Musical Software Instruments
This chapter explores the role of visual representation of sound in music software. Software design often remediates older technologies, such as common music notation, the analogue tape, outboard studio equipment, as well as applying metaphors from acoustic and electric instruments. In that context, the aim here will be study particular modes in which abstract shapes, symbols and innovative not...
متن کاملA Principled Approach to Developing New Languages for Live Coding
This paper introduces Improcess, a novel cross-disciplinary collaborative project focussed on the design and development of tools to structure the communication between performer and musical process. We describe a 3-tiered architecture centering around the notion of a Common Music Runtime, a shared platform on top of which inter-operating client interfaces may be combined to form new musical in...
متن کاملPlaying with dynamic sound
Physical musical instruments have always been dynamic systems designed to operate within chosen constraints. This paper reports on the interaction design of a new digital musical instrument that uses dynamic stochastic synthesis and how performance requirements have directed the development of an appropriate interface that balances the systems emergent behaviour with sufficient real-time predic...
