Pure Data as a Meta-Compositional Instrument

More about the book

Focusing on the construction of two specific electronic compositions, this book serves as a companion to a previous work that utilized Miller Puckette's Pure Data as a meta-compositional tool. It delves into the creative exploration of binary processes, symmetry, and sine tone frequencies, demonstrating how compositions in Pd can reveal their own structural elements. By providing a detailed analysis of these works, the book highlights the potential of Pd for large-scale, multi-sectional projects, emphasizing its role in documenting the creative process.
