Back, behind-the-scenes, I still have some articles in draft form that both detail the nuts’n’bolts decision-making processes in the construction of a machine improviser, and self-reflective critique such constructions, detailing the trade-offs and shortcomings of such an entity, and its design and implementation. I would like to get back to work on these at some […]
Originally posted (under the title ‘beta test 11-10-08: preamble’) on November 25, 2008 in response to the testing session with Franziska Schroeder, and to Franziska’s article. This testing session took place a year and a half before io 0.0.1 beta++’s public debut, and at this stage io was very much work in progress. Almost eight […]
I’ve updated the audio player used on this site, and I’m gradually migrating this site’s pages over to the new widget. You can find additional audio recordings (with new widget) on a couple of other pages. I’d be grateful if you could give these a play, and let me know if you have any problems, […]
Source code for io 0.0.1 beta (rev. May 12th 2009) [86kB zip file]. There have been major changes since 03-23-2009 as a result of the beta tests with Bruce Coates and Franziska Schroeder. These changes are unfortunately not documented/commented at the moment, but I’m uploading the source files for the record.

Here’s a list of the significant changes. These address issues that Franziska Schroeder and Bruce Coates brought up during the testings in November and December respectively. Greater variation in output. Including pseudo-Braxtonian ‘separation’ implemented via interp tables. Implementation of a meta-banalyzer that shakes up the system depending on input variation. Greater variation in the VL70m […]
I will be returning with more detailed reports shortly, but, in the meantime, here is the (not yet annotated) audio documentation of the io++ beta test with Bruce Coates on December 8th 2008. beta test 12-08-08_00 [mp3″] beta test 12-08-08_01 [mp3″] beta test 12-08-08_02 [mp3″] beta test 12-08-08_03 [mp3″] beta test 12-08-08_04 [mp3″] beta test […]
frankenmusic(s) Almost eight years ago, when io-to-be was a bunch of discorporate code fragments, Sara Roberts remarked that the enterprise of constructing a machine improvisers wasn’t so much megalomanic as Frankensteinian. Fifteen days ago, during the break between beta test sessions, Franziska Schroeder asked a pithy question that cut to the core of this enterprise: […]
