Fun with Splines

November 12, 2013

I did these a little while ago in Processing but I love them. It’s just a grid of circles and splines that connect the centers at random. (These are Catmull-Rom splines, to be precise. They’re the same thing that I used for the projections in “Hello World.”)

MMJ4M 05: Interactive Ear Training

April 3, 2013

Chapter 05 of VJ Manzo's book Max/MSP/Jitter for Music is about constructing an application for ear training with musical intervals. I have separate screenshots for each of the twelve steps in this exercise but I've condensed them into a single video below.

MMJ4M 04: Scales and Chords

April 1, 2013

After a long, long time, I'm back and working on Max/MSP/Jitter. (I've got to get these incompletes finished!) I started chapter 4 of VJ Manzo's excellent book Max/MSP/Jitter for Music over a year ago and just finished it today. What's funny is how much my interests have changed since then – I'm much more interested in Max for music now than in using it just as a stepping stone to Jitter and data visualization. My goal is also to start using Max/MSP to work with my saxophone, as well as Ableton Live. Many, many good things.

Anyhow, that's Chapter 04: Scales and Chords for now. Screenshots are above, YouTube links are below.

MMJ4M 03: Math and Music

February 27, 2012

I'm going cross-eyed now that I've finally finished working through the fourteen thousand exercises in Chapter 03 of VJ Manzo's book Max/MSP/Jitter for Music. (Well, it felt like fourteen thousand. And, as VJ may drop in on this post, I'd like to emphasize that it's an excellent book and very thorough. I think I just tried to do too many at one go.) Anyhow, after an extended break to work on other pressing matters (like an academic job application), it's nice to be back into things. I can tell that Max has many, many more things in store for me. That being said, here's my progress report in pictures and video.
