Hello World. This is my first posting - please forgive any minor bungles. I am a research student at Olivetti's Artificial Intelligence Centre in Naples, Italy. My research topic is computer composition of music, such as expert system composition software, or Petri nets; I'm not interested in pure sequencing programs or MIDI equipment. Naples isn't the easiest place to obtain material from, so I'm asking ANYONE ANYWHERE to please send me any relevant thoughts or material (preferably by e-mail to spencer@icopen.ico.olivetti.com): - concerning papers, books, algorithms, program listings - useful ftp addresses - organisations who might assist me - whatever! I'll post a summary if I get a good response. I am using a Roland sound module, a Roland MIDI keyboard, a Music Quest PC-MIDI Card (MPU-401 compatible), and an IBM-compatible (an Olivetti '486). Many thanks in advance - Tom the Kiwi /=======================================================================\ | | | | Tom Spencer-Smith | fax: +39-81-8533564 | | | tel: +39-81-8533646 | | Olivetti Scientific Centre | Internet: | | for Applied Research (OSCAR) | spencer@icopen.ico.olivetti.com OR | | Pozzuoli, Napoli, Italy | music@oliven.atc.olivetti.com | | | | \================> Save the Whales for dessert <========================/
