AM

thanks, torsten! i know hanspeter kyburz (i almost studied with him - and because of him i started working with algorithms) and i know some of his works (CELLS / PARTS / ....). if you have the article of ERES HOLZ as pdf, would be nice (the link seems to be dead)... only some short thoughts - not on an scientific research level isn't it - in general - a question about complexity and information? and complexity/information changes when you are changing/crossing the MEDIA. that means: from algorithms/code/mathematics to sound/music or visuals... also

thanks! a. p.s. ... that's why i have some other solutions for my needs...

thank you, torsten! (at the moment, I'm thinking about what the GAP is between visual visual l-systems (images, you see the whole "gestalt") and acoustic ones (which more has to do with the PROCESS in time, musical grammar...). the handling / perception / .... is a completely different one)

my colleagues from the computermusic laboratory advised me not to steer external things via internal SLEEP, but also to control the TIME / delay via OSC. perhaps also has to do with the fact that for me different things must be controlled in parallel and synchronized. i don't know...

the NUMBER is precise, but ... ...but the great thing is, you are very flexible (and open) in OPMO/lisp... and you can trigger also other software/externals from OPMO/lisp via OSC, i LOVE IT

but SLEEP is not very precise - would be nic to have in OPMO a real precise trigger, like with OSC (for external players...)

it's not necessary for me, just an idea

;;; a little extension for lsystems, i needed all generations, not only the final one. i think for in-time-processes it's more interesting, because you will hear/see the way of "growing/developing" ;;; perhaps JANUSZ could extended the original OPMO-function. keep attention about stack-overflow if you have LARGE DEPth :-) ;;; function (defun all-gen-lsystem (ls &key depth ) (loop repeat (1+ depth) for i from 0 to depth collect (rewrite-lsystem ls :depth i))) ;;; setup (defclass sieve_1 (l-system) ((axiom :initform '(1)) (depth :initform 10))) (defm

because in such a fast "basic tempo" they were too close to "17" and "23" i think in slower tempo it makes sense to work with numbers they are close/closer to each other. then the perception compares the tempi, when the GAPS are to large it's only "SLOW/FAST".... depends on your ideas... THANKS FOR THE HINT, i will look at it!! andré

polytemporal fall - algorithmic study [with tempo relations 3:5:7:11:17:23:29] https://soundcloud.com/andr-meier-1/algorithmic-study-polytemporal-fall this is a small example: i coordinate and play MIDIs (in this case this are simple scales) in OPMO via OSC -> maxmsp_player. you can here how precise you can coordinate simple [but polytemporal] scales => all the MIDIs coincide (?) - 30000ms after the evaluation of the code - in an unsiono pitch!!! in that way you can coordinate different scores/midi's (which have individual tempos (!)) very precis

dear janusz when will be the next update (with midi-to-omn)? and it would be also nice to GET from midi: bpm duration (of the whole midi, as a result of tempo/bpm and the lengths/rests) ...if possible... thanx a.

"What you are doing Andre is quite bad and unsafe" very friendly, your answer ...and i knew that, but i didn't found some hints (jn the tutorials) how to extract OMN from def-score. of course it is not good, but it took me only 2 minutes to briefly the problem for my specific application. i have not written any official opusmodus-function (which can do anything) but a simple solution which helps me.

oh, this was simple here is a small program, it works... (defun get-pitch-from-midi (midipath) (loop for i in (flatten (compile-score (midi-to-score midipath) :output :score)) when (or (chordp i) (pitchp i)) collect i)) (get-pitch-from-midi "path/filename") also with length?! (defun get-length-from-midi (midipath) (loop for i in (flatten (compile-score (midi-to-score midipath) :output :score)) when (and (lengthp i)

dear all is there a quick way to import (or filter) only pitches and chords from a midi-file? if i only use these (nothing else from midi/xml) thanx for a hint andré

for me usage it has to be "by OSC". i have to be able to control two programs (conducting/display + e-player/samples) simultaneously and in a coordinated way. so i can send DATA for both software-applications well coordinated...

dear all here is a setup for playing midi-files/scores in polytempi / follow the instructions and have fun! just ask if you have some questions... greetings andré - personally i will use it for exact sample/e-player perfomance with my pieces which are working with "Technology-Assisted Conducting" http://polytempo.zhdk.ch ... in future i will do it all directly from OPMO or lisp - "live score generating" + polytempo-conducting + e-player) - i have already done this with my piece MODULAR FORM but not all controlled by LISP/OPMO, so next step is d

too much code and too complicated to post - I do not have the time to write a manual. it's a "machine" that creates multiple "brownian bridges" combined with "pitch-contour" and "add-rnd-dust". it's an all-in-ONE tool/machine/bot... I'm interested in repetition/difference in other contexts than traditional ones; but "brownian bridges" then resemble ornaments. when the sequences are short - brownian bridges are "rnd-processes" between 2 fixed points - then you will keep ornamental sequences between this 2 points/pitches... (I did not work with a score, just

another example/experiment - you hear 4 times the same "brownian-phrase" but mapped on different tonalities... untitled.aiff a) diatonic/major b) blues-heptatonic c) chromatic d) messiaen-modus greetings andré

thanx, but just a project/coding sketch - nothing serious

very nice, janusz!!

you could add it!

perhaps you have some better ideas - ...perhaps with range/ambitus... sometimes in trouble - but i only use it for my current work, and so it's no problem could be nice if you could do the add-system also with an external list input -> not fibonacci or primes or sum, but perhaps also with any integer or float list. so MODIFY-function could be done with any DATA... and perhaps it could be also nice for LENGTH and DYNAMICS, i would like that (all-in-one)
