Packages for ArtWonk : New Mathematical Tools for Composers

Warren Burt

Proceedings of the International Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression

Abstract:

This paper describes a series of mathematical functions implemented by the author in the commercial algorithmic software language ArtWonk, written by John Dunn, which are offered with that language as resources for composers. It gives a history of the development of the functions, with an emphasis on how I developed them for use in my compositions.
