    No full text
    The art of engaging with computer music systems is multifaceted. This paper will provide an overview of the issues of interface between musician and computer, cognitive aspects of engagement as involvement, and metaphysical understandings of engagement as proximity. Finally, this paper will examine implications for the design of computer music systems when these issues are taken into account

    Introducing jMusic

    No full text
    This paper introduces the jMusic compositional language. jMusic is a package of Java classes which provides an environment for non real time music composition. jMusic consists of a music data structure for event organisation along the lines of Common Music and HSML, however it relies more heavily than these on the common practice notation score metaphor in an attempt to provide easy access to composers familiar with that environment. The music data structure is practical for analysis as well as composition, and jMusic reads and writes standard MIDI files to facilitate interaction with existing computer-based music systems. jMusic includes audio classes for sound synthesis, and signal processing, along the lines of Csound and Cmix, however its object oriented nature and the integration between compositional and synthesis functions provide a platform for efficiently combining music-event and audio processes. jMusic is not a scripting language but a direct extension of the Java programming language. This allows access to the full functionality of Java, including the ability to write applets for Internet usage, and for applications to be run unchanged on a wide range of platforms (even with graphical interfaces). Learning jMusic is learning Java, so computer musicians can leverage to mutual advantage jMusic and Java experience. This paper outlines the jMusic data structure and built-in functionality, includes code examples, and shows how jMusic can be extended by users. jMusic is available for free public download

    Generative Music in Live Performance

    No full text
    This paper describes a generative score display system for algorithmic composition and score presentation de-veloped for use in the author's work "Appearances." A performance of the work requires musicians to sight-read scores that are generated during the performance and displayed as common practice notation on screens. The paper outlines the approaches to score generation and display then discusses the practical considerations of performing "Appearances" using the system.Full Tex

    No full text
    It is usually assumed that the Alert Collector column author has some expertise on the subject covered. This is especially true this issue for author Andrew R. Grissom’s column on workpace diversity and inclusion. Grissom is an information professional at a nonprofit devoted to these issues. You could say he “lives and breathes” this topic. The column has something for all libraries, whether you are seeking to expand your circulating collections or offer an in-house collection of resources to help your library create or maintain an inclusive workplace.—Editor </jats:p
