strangeloop Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Hey friends, I am building a computer-assisted music composition web environment for creating and sharing algorithmic computer music. This web environment is and will remain free and I'll also provide free tutorials so that anyone can learn how to create algorithmic compositions. If you want to see a demo (Mozart's musical dice game): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74KXJt08S-s Or if you want to try it yourself: http://scripthica.com If you're interested in learning more about algorithmic music, I'm also selling an e-book ($10 usd) to support the development of this software: http://kck.st/1cgHV5D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KakeiTheWolf Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Something about this seems very foreboding and ominous, but I cannot figure out why... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie Detergnt Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 hihi, i tried doing a small music generating application myself (for me, to fasten my learning), but i realised that i don't know some basics of how good melody really works. good luck.

shiihs Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Interesting idea! What methods are you working on besides the "Wurfelspiel" ? I'm dabbling a bit with algorithmic composition myself as well, see e.g. http://a-touch-of-music.blogspot.be/2013/08/algorithmic-composition-generating.html http://a-touch-of-music.blogspot.be/2013/04/25-shades-of-random.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Music21 is an awesome library. I'm integrating toolkits for spectral composition, constraint programming, parrallel motion detectors, genetic algorithms, cellular automatons, etc. Here are other stuff I've done with it: Mozart's musical dice game (waltz): http://www.scripthica.com/5708118910566400 first 10,000 digits of pi: http://www.scripthica.com/5680051299287040 Machaut's Ma fin est mon commencement: http://www.scripthica.com/5135440856219648 Riley's IN C: http://www.scripthica.com/5672565171290112 The 'cool' thing about this software, is that you can share algorithms that generate compositions. it's also going to be open source as soon as I finish with phase 1 of the project.

kenhimura Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Cool! My master's thesis are linked to this idea of algorithmic music. Have you look over David Cope? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiihs Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Cool! My master's thesis are linked to this idea of algorithmic music. Have you look over David Cope? Yes! He managed to get some impressive results. I have paged through some of his books (and own one of his books) where he explains Emmy and Sarah.
