>It is the sheer challenge of trying to code anything interesting
whatsoever in front of an audience, those realtime constraints on thinking
that show some analogy to other forms of improvisation. But maybe that's
just me ; )
In a classical music performance, the known language is
the seven basic notes and this is known to the most audiences
who appreciate classical music.
If you're using Perl for Toplapping, the music produced (and the
screen displayed) will only be of interest to those who have had a
brush with Perl.
TopLapping will never get close to a real performance until the "interpreted
language"
being TopLapped is also evolved live in front of the audience. There must be
NO USE
OF ARTIFICAL MEMORY FOR PROCESSING SOUND. That's the GBG perspective anyway.
This is why the I Ching is important in this context. As a live programming
interface.
