Abstract

This paper aims to discuss the interactive music system concept. An operational computer with “intelligent” software “understands” the performer actions and “follows” the score, being able to accompany the soloist, to transform the sound, and to generate music, during the ongoing performance. It provides the reader with compositional algorithms for the purpose of illustrating Max/MSP programming methods and techniques.
