Al-jazari, by Dave Griffiths, presents a novel approach to live coded music. Using his bespoke game engine, Fluxus (which is written in Scheme) Griffiths uses the isometric tile based game model, populated with robots as a live Generative ’score’. Using a game pad to control the robots, music is generated by the resulting interactions of the robots as they pass over audio triggers. Check out the interesting and somewhat esoteric sketches that provided the developmental framework for Al-jazari. [blogged by Paul on DATAISNATURE]
