Abstract
Inside Computer Music is an investigation of how new technological developments have influenced the creative possibilities of composers of computer music in the last 50 years. This book combines detailed research into the development of computer music techniques with nine case studies that
analyze key works in the musical and technical development of computer music. The book's companion website offers demonstration videos of the techniques used and downloadable software. There, readers can view interviews and test emulations of the software used by the composers for themselves. The software also presents musical analyses of each of the nine case studies to enable readers to engage with the musical structure aurally and interactively.
Pieces explored include:
1. John Chowning, Stria
2. Barry Truax, Riverrun
3. Philippe Manoury, Pluton
4. Hildegard Westerkamp, Beneath the Forest Floor
5. Francis Dhomont, Phonurgie
6. Trevor Wishart, Imago
7. Jonathan Harvey, String Quartet No. 4
8. Cort Lippe, Music for Tuba and Computer
9. Natasha Barrett, Hidden Values: The Lock
