Computer music is a truly interdisciplinary field; practitioners are well known for experimenting with new and developing technologies from a wide span of disciplines. Such experimentation is a tradition that stems back to the genesis of computer music, where a mathematician with a musical background programmed an early computer in the early 1950s to play a tune. The area of computer music has ...

Computer generated music can be useful in introductory programming courses as the theme for programming projects as well as a method for demonstrating algorithms. Two ideas for student programming projects that have actually been assigned are described. But the emphasis of the paper is on the use of a technique known as algorithmic granular synthesis. This is explained first as a computer music...

This is a research report of improvisational computer music with human-computer interaction and music education. Many sensors are used for the interactive communication as interfaces, and many algorithmic agents are connected via networks each other. This paper is intended as an investigation of some special approaches: (1) Unix(Irix)-based network session system called "Improvisession-I", (2) ...

Vuzik is an interface for creating computer music using painting gestures and graphical music representation on an interactive surface. We present the design and implementation of the current prototype of Vuzik, discuss the current ongoing user evaluation, and propose applications of the system in music education settings and computer music creation. We aspire for Vuzik to offer the creator and...

This paper presents an original cloud computing architecture for music composition. In this model, music applications are built by making several computer music services work together. Component services are provided by a dedicated layer in the cloud architecture called computer music as a Service (CMaaS). The specialized music services can be integrated into different applications at the same ...
