The composit new music festival is opening a Max/electronic music program this summer. Topics will include:

Perhaps most importantly, I'll include some personal project tutoring.

This summer course is organized by composer Davide Ianni; Pierluigi Billone & Stefano Gervasoni will be there for the acoustic composition course, and the mdi ensemble is going to perform 2 concerts.

The composit new music festival is opening a Max/electronic music program this summer. Topics will include: 

spectral sound processing, including an in-depth exploration of the FFT in Max, and how to harness its power for extreme time stretching, real-time freeze, and graphically-based spectral processing

introduction to sensors and Arduino to make interactive art

the power of the [poly~] object in Max, including the dynamic management or your CPU usage

Presets in Max, including classic patch architecture for live electronics compositions, and other interactive options.

Perhaps most importantly, I'll include some personal project tutoring.

will you make another course? I live in Italy but for me there would be no problem in flying to France to follow such a specific course on the same topics.

Also, do you recommend some resources to learn FFT - Spectral synthesis?

Hi,

Thank you in advance


Thanks for your interest! Yes, I should take part to Composit 2017 in Rieti, although the details have not been announced yet. We should have a nice electronic music program, including some spectrum explorations, workshops around the musical use of transducers, and an electro-acoustic improvisation ensemble with the participants. Some topics will be chosen depending on the participants' interests, as well.

In the meantime, if you are getting started with FFT, you could start with the Max tutorial about [pfft~], the Max examples (in MSP / FFT Fun). If you are interested in the phase vocoder, you could read Mark Dolson's article "The Phase Vocoder: a Tutorial". Also, I uploaded examples in the "toolbox" section of this site (search with keyword spectral).

Hello Alessio,

I'll definitely watch the resources you pointed me to and I'll be waiting for Composite 2017 to begin.

Thank you very much Jean for your reply!
