All:
I would like to announce the Mondrian Project. Mondrian is an attempt
to create a text-based setting for writing and performing music. It
currently consists of the following parts:
- a simple music description language intended to be small and
keystroke efficient
- a Mondrian-to-MIDI converter
- interactive sequencers intended to play Mondrian code in a
live performance
- sequencer plugins for vi and emacs that turn text editors into
musical instruments
You can find Mondrian at
http://www.math.tu-berlin.de/~brinkman/software/mondrian/
There's an online demo that'll let you try the language without
the need to install anything.
Any feedback would be appreciated!
Peter
