The project begins

15 October '08 by Adam, under General.

The Music: Undefined project is now underway, beginning with a survey of available computer-based environments within which development of an open form music toolkit could be supported. The targets at this point are IRCAM’s OpenMusic, a self contained visual programming environment for music; FTM/Gabor/MnM, a set of extensions to Max/MSP, also by IRCAM; and Jamoma, another extension to Max/MSP.

I am also beginning on the writing part of the project by investigating the history of open form music away from the concert hall up to this day. This will provide a form of contextualisation to the project, which at the moment is starting to look like a behemoth.

In the future I hope to go into more detail regarding some of the elements I have mentioned above so keep your eyes peeled!

Welcome to Music: undefined

23 June '08 by Adam, under General.

Welcome to the blog for the Music: undefined project, being undertaken by me, Adam Jansch. This post marks the beginning of a process that will unfold over 3 years to provide a framework within which music with open form can be composed, shared, distributed and disseminated, all on a large scale.

The project will start in earnest in October 2008, so this blog may remain quiet until that time. In the mean time check out my website for my artistic work up to this point.
