Composing music -- procedurally ------------------------------- Until 1981 I had been doing some research on computer composition of music. I have now taken up where I left off. Even back then I was not up to date with the latest advances. A lot must have happened in this field since then. I want to contact people who know something about composing by computer. Some of the researchers I read about (like Max Mathews, Lejaren Hiller, Iannis Xenakis, Stephen Smoliar to name a few off the top of my head) must still be out there. Also, people like myself, who do this in their spare time, must have ideas, suggestions, sources of information. What about journals, books, papers on the subject? If anyone in net.land knows anything about computer composition of music, or knows anyone who does, then I beg you to let me know. E-mail is most sensible. Who knows? Maybe we could end up with our own news.group! A phone call or Snailmail reply would be most welcome too. John Tangney ...inhp4!philabs!pwa-b!mmintl!johnt 52 Oakland Ave, East Hartford, CT 06108.
