[linux-audio-announce] ICMC Inspirational Ideas

by The S2S² project

[ Apologies for cross-posting. Feel free to forward around ] The ICMC2005 team (www.icmc05.org) together with the S2S² project (www.s2s2.org) is proposing another way of actively participate and interact in the conference apart from the traditional calls (papers, music,..) The basic idea is to have a venue where researchers and composers can discuss preliminary or visionary ideas. The ideas can be musical, technical, scientific, theoretical, practical, .... No proven results or developed systems are required, the only restriction is that the ideas should be original, inspired and thought provoking. The proposals will be reviewed by a panel. The authors will have a 5 min presentation time in a free-spirited discussion forum inside the ICMC05 activities. The accepted proposals will be printed as handouts during the venue. After the conference, a book will be published containing the papers and a summary of the discussion. This book will also be available online through the S2S² website. We are personally inviting relevant figures in the field to contribute to this idea, which we think is exciting and promising. There is no specific format or template for this call, we encourage original and interesting usage of the one-page format.Please consider submitting a proposal before the deadline on May 23rd, especially if you are already considering attending the Barcelona conference.

[linux-audio-announce] mma - Musical MIDI Accompaniment version Beta 0.14

by Bob van der Poel

I'm pleased to announce the release of my program mma - Musical MIDI Accompaniment version: Beta 0.14 MMA is a accompaniment generator -- it creates midi tracks for a soloist to perform with. User supplied files contain pattern selections, chords, and MMA directives. MMA is very versatile and generates excellent tracks. It comes with an extensive user-extendable library with a variety of patterns for various popular rhythms, an extensive user manual, and many demo songs. MMA is a command line driven program. It creates MIDI files which need a sequencer or MIDI file play program. MMA is written in Python. You'll need Python 2.3 (or later) for MMA to function. MMA is supplied in 4 tar.gz archives. Included: mma-bin -- the main script and library files. mma-html -- documentation in HTML format. mma-pdf -- documentation in PDF format. mma-songs -- a collection of about 230 songs in MMA format. If you get all four download packages the total size is still less than 1.5 megabytes. MMA is currently in final BETAs. We are hoping for a 1.0 release in summer 2005. Right now we need help in debugging the program, creating songs for distribution, and new and improved library files. Best of all, MMA is free. It is released under the terms of the GNU General Public License. It has been developed on a Linux platform, but should be usable on just about any system. A detailed page now exists on our web site on how-to install on a Windows system. MMA is available on my personal home page: http://mypage.uniserve.com/~bvdp/mma/ If you have any questions or comments, please send them to: bvdp(a)uniserve.com Beta 0.14: A number of bug fixes, many more system macros, ALLTRACKS command added, major fixes to chord generation. Comments appreciated! -- Bob van der Poel ** Wynndel, British Columbia, CANADA ** EMAIL: bvdp(a)uniserve.com WWW: http://mypage.uniserve.com/~bvdp
