PDCON:Conference/A collaboration workflow from sound-based composition to performance of electroacoustic music using Pd as a framework: Difference between revisions

Composers could use Pd's visual programming environment to create data-flow diagrams for the sound processing as planned in their composition ideas. Then engineers could validate and, in collaboration with the composers, clarify any part of the diagrams. In order to program a sound synthesis engine as planned by a composer's digram, engineers could use any available method of Pd or its external libraries, or develop new ones. The development of the performer's interface could be based on adaptive, device-focused (sensors-equipped, tangible etc.) data mining engines. Such an approach should not only support the development of performer specific interfaces but will also accelerate the process of the interface development and calibration. Furthermore, a performer gains dexterity on a certain interface by practice. Making available the mapped control parameters of the engine for calibration by the performer himself, should help his practice gain in quality.
