Scriptability and Algorithmic control

2014, Till Bovermann

Scriptability adds flexibility to instruments because it not only allows to define and alter the mapping between two instrument components on the fly but also enables to define and redefine the components themselves. This especially includes just-in-time adjustments of digital signal processing parts (see also Rohrhuber2008JustInTime).

Embracing technology

2014, Till Bovermann

As a performer and instrument builder, I value additions to the established “construction kit for instruments”, if

• the specifics of the introduced technology add something valuable to its sound or control repertoire, and
• if they possess an actual chance of being used.
