No, I think this is the first time I heard his name.
Reasons;
Somebody thinking out loud about what sounded like a cross between
CSound's "Blue" and a tracker for ChucK on the ChucK list.
A performance I saw at the LAC 2 or so years ago that involved what
looked like a sort of spreadsheet controling CSound live, with a sort
of macros below hotkeys.
Thinking about similarities between the grid of Dave's Beta Blocker
and a tracker's grid.
General thoughts about live performances in trackers and how much
those depend on pre-created samples.
The interest of last year that the demo scene seemes to have in livecoding.
Also; the general concept of sound genrating functions that get called
a lot of times with different values as arguments, which is exactly
what trackers do quite well.
Yours,
Kas.
