Hi all,
Just in case your in Melbourne next Friday (22nd of February) I will
be presenting a review of the work I've done on distributed
environments for computer music. More details below.
Cheers,
Rob.

A Distributed Environment for Computer Music.
Friday the 22nd of February at 12:00 midday.
Theatre 3, Level 2, ICT Building 111 Barry Street, Carlton
ABSTRACT:
Fifty years of computer music research has established a wide
range of techniques and tools. Implementing all of these
within a single application is impractical, yet each task
might require a different selection to be applied. Therefor,
the sharing of structured information between distinct
applications becomes a key challenge for computer music as a
field. This challenge is further complicated by real-time and
user-interface requirements. In response, we propose a new
distributed environment for computer music.
BIO:
Robert Shelton is a final year PhD student in Department of
Computer Science at the University of Melbourne. His current
research interests focus on problems in programming language
implementation (lock-free concurrency control, incremental
analysis), computer supported collaborative work (user
interface, semantics, semiotics) and computer music with
special attention given to existing computer music programming
languages such as
Chuck,

Imprompty,

cSound,
http://csounds.com
Nyquist,
http://nyquist.sourceforge.net
SuperCollider,

Aspects of Robert's current research direction were
demonstrated through a real-time programming competition at
Loop Bar in 2006 (
