[linux-audio-user] ablton live emulation

Greetings Favio, Dave, and all,

Nick Collins and Alan Blackwell recently published a paper "The 
Programming Language as a Musical Instrument", which put forth a 
comparison/contrast of Ableton Live to ChucK (the latter a text-based 
audio programming language that, among other things, can be programmed 
"on-the-fly", or live).  A well-written and fun read, and perhaps 
relevant to the subject at hand.

The paper:

The chuck:

I've also included Nick's original post to TOPLAP below.

Best,
Ge!

Subject: [livecode] ChucK vs Ableton Live

hi all,

Alan Blackwell and I wrote a paper on 'The Programming Language as a 
Musical Instrument' from the perspective of human computer interaction, 
which I've made public here in case anyone is curious:

http://www.cus.cam.ac.uk/~nc272/papers/pdfs/proglangasmusicinstr.pdf

It's for the Psychology of Programming Interest Group conference at the 
end of this month where Alan is presenting it and will hopefully show 
Ade's TOPLAP video on our behalf.

btw, I contributed the central parts waffling about laptop music, live 
coding history, and the ChucK (pre Audicle) vs Ableton Live analysis, plus 
a bit at the end about maintenance. All the rest is Alan's hard work. It's 
written for HCI people so might be a bit entry level on music issues for 
some points.

best,
N
