	sc140 - new electronic music in only 140 characters by Dan Stowell-3 :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hi all - I have curated a collection of electronic music, each piece having been composed using only 140 characters of SuperCollider code: http://supercollider.sf.net/sc140 Hopefully interesting to folks on this list. The 140-character limit is pretty extreme, so I was impressed by many of the results. Naturally the tight limits lead to coding tricks which don't exactly make good pedagogy! But the sourcecode is there as well as the music, both CC-licensed.

A while ago I started posting little fragments of synthesis algorithms on twitter. Others took the idea and ran with it, eventually creating some impressive entire works with just 140 chars. So I curated an album which I think shows some of the best pieces. It's an interesting challenge for a coder in a DSP/music language. A nice illustration is this article which builds a pretty decent recreation of the THX "Deep Note" in SuperCollider, then right at the end tries to boil it down to a 140-character version: <http://www.batuhanbozkurt.com/instruction/recreating-the-thx-deep-note> Best Dan -- Dan Stowell Centre for Digital Music Queen Mary, University of London Mile End Road, London E1 4NS http://www.elec.qmul.ac.uk/digitalmusic/people/dans.htm http://www.mcld.co.uk/ -- dupswapdrop -- the music-dsp mailing list and website: subscription info, FAQ, source code archive, list archive, book reviews, dsp links http://music.columbia.edu/cmc/music-dsp http://music.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/music-dsp
	Re: sc140 - new electronic music in only 140 characters by Stephen Blinkhorn-2 :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Thanks for this Dan. I always intended to try out the examples being posted on the SC list but never found the time - so this is a nice compilation that you can just load up and listen to. Surprisingly devoid of novelty factor too. Of course there's a difference between writing DSP code and writing SuperCollider code but SC is always so refreshing to return to after some time spent in C/C++ land.
