Abstract | Algorithmic composition is the creation of music using algorithms, or more specifically, computer programming. Realtime Algorithmic Composition seeks to extend this compositional technique to real-time scenarios like concert performances or interactive installations. As such, a more novel mode of interaction between the composer and the system is needed for effective expression and parameter control. We summarise the design and implementation of a Real-time Algorithmic Composition system that employs a tabletop musical interface for input control. Several algorithms developed for real-time performance are discussed. The application and inclusion of the tabletop interface is then outlined and evaluated. |
