That's a telling picture.
Are you suggesting, Alex, that in live coding music becomes a medium for
performing the art of programming? In this case perhaps some knowledge
of programming *is* necessary to appreciate the performance.
There are a number of other constructions of course:
audience( music( programming ) ) (3)
audience( programming( music ) ) (4)
audience( music * programming ) (5)
[music] -> ([programminmg]) -> [audience] (6)
f( audience, music, programming ) (7)
My first thought was (6) (programming as a medium through which to
express music to an audience). But perhaps (7) is the most accurate.
