… and some more comnputer languages to be used to code granular synthesis, granular sound processing and granular sound design:
OpenMusic
To say it at once: OpenMusic is not mainly meant to manipulate sound. It is not a dedicated sound processing programming environment. Its main purpose is coding compositions, working with notes and notations and manipulating scores.

Earthquakes – Part 2
As I told you in my last article of this series: Not every sound design experiment brings the expected or wanted results. And that´s the way I ended with my earthquake experiment. The sounds from throwing things at the pasta-rice,chickpeas-sugar mixture were excellent! They were excitingly superb and served – and still will serve – as great raw material for further design steps.

Two More Decisions to be made
There are at least two other decisions to be made in generative music:
Decision 3:
Do I allow myself to intervene from time to time?
And
Decision 4:
Do I follow a clean puristic approach, or do I allow myself to record single pieces and put them together in a later production process?

We are approaching the end of this series about the ARP 2500 modules, or better said: we would be approaching the end of the series, if I had not prepared a couple of interesting patches (schematics, explanation and video demonstrations). But let´s learn about the modules 1016 (Noise / Random Voltage), the module 1003 (Dual Envelope Generator) and the module 1033 (Dual Delayed Gate Envelope Generator) first.

More Thoughts About Structure, Randomness and Compositional Strategies
Are the terms “composing“ and “generative“ mutually exclusive antipodes?
