The IXI Lang: A SuperCollider Parasite for Live Coding

نویسنده

  • Thor Magnusson
چکیده

This demo paper describes the rationale and design of the ixi lang, a live coding language built on top of SuperCollider. The paper explains why SuperCollider is used for this task, and reports on a survey conducted with users of the language. It concludes that simple and constrained systems can be useful in specific musical contexts, in particular when sketching or improvising, but that such systems can be limiting in the long run.

SuperCopair: Collaborative Live Coding on SuperCollider through the cloud

In this work we present the SuperCopair package, which is a new way to integrate cloud computing into a collaborative live coding scenario with minimum efforts in the setup. is package, created in Coffee Script for Atom.io, is developed to interact with SuperCollider and provide opportunities for the crowd of online live coders to collaborate remotely on distributed performances. Additionally,...

Interfacing 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...

Quick Live Coding Collaboration In The Web Browser

With the growing adoption of internet connectivity across the world, online collaboration is still a difficult and slow endeavor. Many amazing languages and tools such as SuperCollider, ChucK, and Max/MSP all facilitate networking and collaboration, however these languages and tools were not created explicitly to make group performances simple and intuitive. New web standards such as Web Audio ...

Clone Detection for Max/MSP Patch Libraries

Determining music similarity is a well-known problem in the music information retrieval community. Of the music representations previously addressed by such work, patches written in visual languages such as Pure Data [1] and Max/MSP [2] are not usually considered, yet they represent a class of music representation where the generative elements can have a close and often deterministic relationsh...

Designing Constraints: Composing and Performing with Digital Musical Systems

Currently, a musician working with digital technology is faced with a panoply of musical tools that can be roughly characterized by a split between ready-made music production software on the one hand, and audio-programming environments such as SuperCollider, CSound, Pure Data, Max/MSP, ChucK, or Audiomulch (to name but a few) on the other. Problems with the former lie in the conceptual and com...
