i’ll try again later

:confused: dang. lemme know what happens!

@shreeswifty, did this work on your end?

Here’s a medium post I wrote about live coding recently https://medium.com/@yaxupaxo/live-coding-1eb06f0ddf26
I just started writing on medium, all feedback very welcome

Great medium post, thanks!

One of the things I love about tidal is actually dirt-samples. I wonder if our “tidal fights” thread would work so well without a standard library of samples to work with. I have a thing on my todo list to explore a bunch of other live coding setups (just curiosity mainly), but I’m already anticipating that if they lack something like dirt-samples, they’re not going to hit the mark so nicely.

Been playing around with Overtone tonight, and while tidal’s support of dirt is nice, Overtone has freesound support, which is also pretty nice. But what Overtone lacks is tidal’s notions of patterns. Tidal patterns are just so immediate for defining rhythm. I’m having a little more trouble using them for melody and harmony, but I suppose that’ll be my next challenge.

I’m also pretty excited to try gibberwocky, but once you drag Ableton into it, it doesn’t really qualify as “forum music” any longer.

@yaxu not quite live coding, but close… any news on the Oxford Handbook on Algorithmic Music?

OHAM is still going to be a few more months I fear, looking good tho!

Nice one! Am I going to have to start saving up for crazy academic book pricing?

I think it’s not going to be cheap :confused: but it will be a large book, and authors will be able to share preprints

You might want to try out MUD for patterns in Overtone, doesn’t seem to be as elegant as Tidal’s though.

Ooh, while investigating FoxDot, I ran across this:


This might be the best solution net for

Now back to trying to make FoxDot work…

Edit: Still having problems with FoxDot, but I just realized Gibber also allows for collaborative real-time editing.

Yeah, he’s great. I’d also highly recommend the stuff he’s doing as part of devv:

@s_hamann posted it at the start of this thread – wild how a few months can open something up. karlsson’s work on this is just beautiful.

Happy to announce that a generic MIDI version of gibberwocky is now available:

http://gibberwocky.cc/midi

Runs in the browser (well, Chrome and Opera) and should talk with any MIDI hardware or DAWs; no plugins or closed-source software required. Please let me know if you have a chance to try it out! - Charlie
