# Class summary

three main topics:
- max & live
- live coding
- reactive programming

all involve **coding** and **sonic experimentation**

interaction: in-class, too!
- performance
- inspiration
- assignments

final
- A. your own IMS
- B. a 3+ page paper submitted to a workshop/conference/journal
- see [syllabus](https://www.notion.so/itpma/Interactive-Music-Systems-eefdd64b55e249c1813aa0a1cd701383)

# Definitions

computer music
- definitions? examples?

computers facilitate 5 basic functions (Magnusson):

1. programming (composing) of musical parameters
2. storage of musical parameters
3. retrieval of musical parameters
4. audio synthesis of musical parameter execution
5. editing and playback of the resulting material

## Four flavours of computer music

fixed media / electroacoustic / tape music / acousmatic music

mixed music

live coding

sonification / auditory display

what does an electronic music composer *do*?
- [A+M+T podcast ep w/ Elainie Lillios](https://artmusictech.libsyn.com/podcast-373-elainie-lillios)

IMS = computer music + *machine musicianship*

## Defining IMS

Interactive computer music systems are those whose behavior changes in response to musical input. (Robert Rowe)

*Epistemic tools*, extensions of the mind that tie it to the environment. (Thor Magnusson)

machine musicianship
- 2 processes: listening & action | *machine listening* & *live electronics*

score-driven vs performance-driven

# Assignment

create a minimalistic instrument in Max, which takes one input (audio, sensor, mouse etc) and controls one sonic parameter. Record a 1-minute performance (audio or video) using the instrument.
