SUMMARY:LAC2010 - The WFS system at La Casa del Suono\, Parma
DESCRIPTION:At the start of 2009 a 189-channel Wave Field Synthesis system was installed at the Casa del Suono in Parma\, Italy. All audio and control processing required to run the system is performed by four Linux machines. The software used is a mix of standard Linux audio applications and some new ones developed specially for this installation. This paper discusses the main technical issues involved\, including sections on the audio hardware\, the digital signal processing algorithms\, and the software used to control and manage the system.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - Emulating a Combo Organ Using Faust
DESCRIPTION:This paper describes the working principles of a 40 year old transistor organ and how it is emulated with software. The emulation presented in this paper is open source and written in a functional language called Faust. The architecture of the organ proved to be challenging for Faust. The process of writing this emulation highlighted some of Faust's strengths and helped identify ways to improve the language.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - Pro Audio is Easy\, Consumer Audio is Hard
DESCRIPTION:Audio Production and consumer audio share a lot of infrastructure -- however there are a number of major differences. While for audio production environments reliable low latencies are key\, dynamic reconfigurable routing unimportant and power management irrelevant\, for consumer audio (i.e. desktop and mobile)\, latencies and routing must be dynamically reconfigurable and power consumption minimized. This has the effect that a good consumer audio stack must adjust much more dynamically\, flexibly and seamlessly to its current workload than a pro audio stack. Buffer sizes/latencies (up to 2s!) must be changed dynamically\, the whole audio pipeline must be able to "rewind" its playback position if needed so that long buffers do not result in slow reaction to user input\, and unreliable clients with different latency requirements must be handled at the same time. This makes it necessary to leave the limited domain of the sound card clock and schedule audio with the system clock\, which of course adds major complexities due to the required estimation of deviation.\nHence one can argue that while an idealized pro audio stack could be modelled as a set of one-way fixed-speed FIFO buffers\, a consumer audio stack needs to be modelled as buffers that can be rewound\, dynamically changed in size and run with varying speeds\, in addition to many other additional complexities.\nIn this talk I hope to explain a little how the consumer audio stack works\, how it is different from the pro audio stack\, where the complexities are\, where we can share technology\, where we cannot\, where we should\, and where we shouldn't.\nOf course\, the title of this talk is a bit exaggerated to catch your attention. However\, there's some truth to it\, and in this talk you might hopefully learn why I believe that.\n\nLennart Poettering works for Red Hat's desktop group and is to blame \;-) for stuff like PulseAudio and more.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - LuaAV: Extensibility and Heterogeneity for Audiovisual Computing
DESCRIPTION:We describe LuaAV\, a runtime library and application which extends the Lua programming language to support computational composition of temporal\, sound\, visual\, spatial and other elements. In this paper we document how we have attempted to maintain several core principles of Lua itself - extensibility\, meta-mechanisms\, efficiency\, portability - while dealing with the complex temporal demands of flexibility and accuracy inherent to the context of audio-visual interactive media arts and research. Code generation is noted as a recurrent strategy for increasingly dynamic and extensible environments.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - Developing parallel audio applications with FAUST
DESCRIPTION:While the number of cores of our CPUs is expected to double every new generation\, writing efficient parallel applications that can benefit from all these cores\, remain a complex and highly technical task. The problem is even more complex for real-time audio applications that require low latencies and thus relatively fine-grained parallelism.\nIn order to facilitate the development of parallel audio application\, the FAUST compiler developed at GRAME provides two powerful options to automatically produce parallel code. The first one is based on the OpenMP standard\, while the second one uses Posix pthreads directly. This hands on demo will give the audience the opportunity to discover these parallelization facilities\, their limits and their benefits\, on concrete examples of audio applications.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - Re-Generating Stockhausen's
DESCRIPTION:Stockhausen's "Studie II" (1954) is one of the classical works of electronic music. Written at a time when Computers played no role in the production of sound\, it exhibits a way of composing which is quite similar to programming. This can be shown by re-programming the complete piece just with the input of five numbers. Beside this reduction - which is made in Csound - the compositorial decisions come to the fore\, showing a flexibility and variability of algorithms which can be inspiring and challenging still today.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - General-purpose Ambisonic playback systems for electroacoustic concerts - a practical approach
DESCRIPTION:Concerts of electroacoustic music usually feature works written for various speaker layouts. Except in the most luxurious of circumstances\, this implies compromises in placement\, frequent interruptions of the concert experience to relocate speakers\, and/or errorÂ­prone equipment rewiring or reconfiguration during the concert.  To overcome this\, an Ambisonic higherÂ­order playback system can be used to create virtual speakers at any position as mandated by the compositions. As a bonus\, the performer can then be given realtime control of the source positions in addition to their levels\, increasing the creative freedom of live sound diffusion.  Deployments at LAC 2009 and the 2009 DEGEM concert at musikFabrik in Cologne have yielded very good results and been met with general approval. More detailed listening tests are scheduled and will be reported upon.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - Education on music and technology
DESCRIPTION:We describe the development and the maintenance of a program for a professional education at Utrecht School of Music and Technology. The program covers most of the field and offers various degrees up to PhD level. The program was developed over the last 23 years and is updated on a yearly basis. We deliver about 80 graduates a year to work\, survive and keep up with developments. 92 % of our students develop a healthy career after graduation. Music technology as a field of studies is in constant and rapid development and because of that the characteristics of "the professional" in the field are changing very rapidly too. For this reason we have built in mechanisms to enforce regular updates of the program and to develop the knowledge and skills of the teaching staff.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - Open Images: Creative reuse of audiovisual content
DESCRIPTION:Open Images (www.openimages.eu) is an open media platform that offers online access to audiovisual archive material to stimulate creative reuse. Footage from audiovisual collections can be downloaded and remixed into new works. Users of Open Images also have the opportunity to add their own material to the platform and thus expand the collection. Open Images also provides an API\, making it easy to develop mashups.\nAccess to the material on Open Images is provided under the Creative Commons licensing model. Creative Commons gives authors\, artists\, scientists and teachers the freedom to approach their copyright in a more flexible manner and make their work available in a way they can choose themselves.\n The "open" nature of the platform is underscored by the use of open video formats (Ogg Theora)\, open standards (HTML5\, OAI-PMH) and open source software components. Furthermore\, all software that is developed within the scope of Open Images will also be released under the GNU General Public License.\n\n Open Images is an initiative of the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision in collaboration with Knowledgeland. By the end of 2009 Open Images offers access to over 450 Polygoon items from the Sound and Vision archives. The collection will grow substantially over the coming years\; as new items will be uploaded continuously.\nEverybody is more than welcome to add material to the platform\, ­not only collection institutes and producers\, but all netizens creating new materials based on Open Images fragments and items from other open repositories.

DESCRIPTION:"Download Problem Solved" is a discussion group and think tank involved with issues the media and entertainment industry are currently dealing with: easy downloading\, sharing\, copyright infringement and plummeting sales. The main goals of this initiative are to bring the matter back to its core and to find practical solutions.\n Before the Linux Audio Conference starts\, there have already been two workshops in which we have taken a look at the wants in both supply and demand from the views of the consumer\, composer/producer and the distributer. The third and final session of the DPS pilot will take place during the Linux Audio Conference. We will present our ideas and views on the subject\, how they arrived from the previous sessions and are hoping to get constructive feedback from the Linux Audio community with its long standing background in business models based around free and open ideas. There will be plenty of time for a discussion.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - A Very Fractal Cat\, Somewhat T[h]rilled
DESCRIPTION:A Very Fractal Cat\, Somewhat T[h]rilled (2008-2010)\n This is the latest version of the second piece (after "Cat Walk") of a series of algorithmic performance pieces for pianos\, computer and "cat" that I started working on at the end of 2007 (the proverbial cat walking on a piano keyboard). The performer connects through a keyboard controller\, four pedals and two modulation wheels to four virtual pianos both directly and through algorithms. Through the piece different note and phrase generation algorithms are triggered by the performer's actions\, including markov chains that the virtual cat uses to learn from the performer\, fractal melodies\, plain scales and trills and other even simpler algorithms. The sound of the pianos is heard directly\, and is also processed using spectral\, granular and other synthesis techniques at different points in the performance\, creating spaces through which the performer moves. A surround environment is created with Ambisonics spatialization\, and everything in the piece (algorithms\, sound generation and processing and graphical user interface) was written in the SuperCollider language.\n "A Very Fractal Cat\, Somewhat T[h]rilled" is a piece for performer (a classically trained pianist)\, four virtual pianos\, an optional midi controlled player piano (Disklavier or similar)\, and computer-based sound processing and synthesis.\n The performer uses a weighted 88 note keyboard controller\, four pedals and two modulation wheels to connect directly and through a program to four virtual pianos and a player piano that render both the notes the performer plays and derived materials created in real-time by the program. The computer processing involves algorithmic generation of additional note and control events and sound synthesis\, processing and spatialization of the resulting audio streams. The virtual pianos used include a Yamaha C7\, Steinway\, Bosendorfer and a Cage prepared piano.\n Sound processing includes granular synthesis and frequency domain transformations that affect (in certain sections of the piece) the sound of the virtual pianos. Additive synthesis is sometimes used to augment and emphasize the pianos sounds.\n The piece has been (and still is) evolving since the end of 2008 when the first versions of the program and score were created. It has been performed in concert several times and a previous (older) version was submitted and performed in the LAC2009 concerts.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - Landschappen
DESCRIPTION:'Landschappen' ('Landscapes') is a spacious tape piece\, meant to be a sonic representation of Dutch Landscapes. There is a lot of inspiration & admiration to find in these endlessly flat\, empty spaces. There's been a need to express these landscapes in music because of this.\n So\, it is really these typical impressions of emptiness and endlessness in Dutch landscapes\, which form the basic concept of the piece.\n http://augustomeijer.wordpress.com\nDance:\n * Drosula Tsangaratou\n * Arianna Cattini\nVideo:\n * Michael Djaparidze\n

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - Applications of Blocked Signal Processing (BSP) in Pd
DESCRIPTION:Sample processing in Pure Data generally is block-based\, while control or message data are computed one by one. Block computation in Pd can be suspended or blocked to save CPU cycles. Such "blocked signals" can be used as an optimization technique for computation of control data. This paper explores possible applications for this "Blocked Signal Processing" (BSP) technique.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - OrchestralLily: A Package for Professional Music Publishing with LilyPond and LaTeX
DESCRIPTION:LilyPond [Nienhuys and et al.\, 2010] and   LaTeX provide excellent free tools to produce professional music scores ready for print and sale. Here we present the OrchestralLily package for LilyPond\, which simplifies the creation of professional music scores with LilyPond and LaTeX even further. All scores are generated on-the-fly without the need to manually specify the structure for each individual score or part.  Additionally\, a LaTeX package for the prefatory matter is available and a templates system to create all files needed for a full edition is implemented.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - Openmixer: a routing mixer for multichannel studios
DESCRIPTION:The Listening Room at CCRMA\, Stanford University is a 3D studio with 16 speakers (4 hang from the ceiling\, 8 surround the listening area at ear level and 4 more are below an acoustically transparent grid floor). We found that a standard commercial digital mixer was not the best interface for using the studio. Digital mixers are complex\, have an opaque interface and they are usually geared towards mixÂ­down to stereo instead of efficiently routing many input and output channels.  We have replaced the mixer with a dedicated computer running Openmixer\, an open source custom program designed to mix and route many input channels into the multichannel speaker array available in the Listening Room. This paper will describe Openmixer\, its motivations\, current status and future planned development.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - 5 years of using SuperCollider in real-time interactive performances and installations - retrospective analysis of Schwelle\, Chronotopia and Semblance
DESCRIPTION:Collaborative\, interactive performances and installations are a challenging coding environment. SuperCollider is an especially flexible audio programming language suitable to use in this context\; and in this paper I will reflect on 5 years of working with this language in three professional projects\, involving dance and interactive environments. I will discuss the needs and context of each project\, common problems encountered and the solutions as I have implemented them for each project\, as well as the resulting tools that have been published online.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - Best Practices for Open Sound Control
DESCRIPTION:The structure of the Open Sound Control (OSC) content format is introduced with historical con- text. The needs for temporal synchronization and dynamic range of audio control data are described in terms of accuracy\, precision\, bit-depth\, bit-rate\, and sampling frequency. Specific details are given for the case of instrumental gesture control\, spa- tial audio control and synthesis algorithm control.  The consideration of various transport mechanisms used with OSC is discussed for datagram\, serial and isochronous modes. A summary of design approaches for describing audio control data is shown\, and the case is argued that multi-layered information-rich representations are necessary.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - Term Rewriting Extension for the Faust Programming Language
DESCRIPTION:This paper discusses a term rewriting extension for the functional signal processing language Faust. The extension equips Faust with a hygienic macro processing facility. Faust macros can be used to define complicated\, parameterized block diagrams\, and perform arbitrary symbolic manipulations of block diagrams. Thus they make it easier to create elaborate signal processor specifications involving many complicated components.

DESCRIPTION:Paper-presentation & hands-on workshop.\nThe paper describes a pop production in mixed-order Ambisonics\, with an ambient sound field recording augmented with spot microphones panned in third order.  After a brief introduction to the hard- and software toolchain\, a number of miking and blending techniques will be discussed\, geared towards the capturing (or faking of) subtle natural ambience and good imaging. I will then describe the expected struggle to make the resulting mix loud enough for commercial use while retaining a natural and pleasant sound stage and as much dynamics as possible.

DESCRIPTION:Concept of the Olympic Games livecoding environment\n Going back to the original Olympic thought of participating is more important than winning\, and drawing on ancient Greek tradition of consulting an Oracle to find a new path in life\, or gain advice on the path one has taken...\n The OlympicGames provide a collaborative\, playful competitive livecoding environment\, where participants are given alternating a set of UGens to write a SynthDef with\, or a set of Pattern elements to write a Pattern with.\n The executed code of all participants is visible\, both to the audience (by displaying its screen with a projector) and to all participants. So every participant can modify code others have come up with.

DESCRIPTION:Key-signing parties serve to extend the web of trust to a great degree.\nGPG/PGP: A key-signing party or meeting is a get-together of at least two individuals who use the PGP encryption system with the purpose of allowing them to sign each others keys.\nSSL-CA: linuxaudio.org serves as a certificate authority for the LAD community. This seems more useful than just having everyone sign their own certs.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - A MusicXML Test Suite and a Discussion of Issues in MusicXML 2.0
DESCRIPTION:MusicXML has become one of the standard interchange formats for music data.  While a specification in the form of some DTD files with comments for each element and equivalently in the form of XML Schemas is available\, no representative archive of MusicXML unit test files has been available for testing purposes. Here\, we present such an extensive suite of MusicXML unit tests [Kainhofer\, 2009]. Although originally intended for regression-testing the musicxml2ly con- verter\, it has turned into a general MusicXML test suite consisting of more than 120 MusicXML test files\, each checking one particular aspect of the MusicXML specification.  During the creation of the test suite\, several shortcomings in the MusicXML specification were detected and are discussed in the second part of this article. We also discuss the obstacles encountered when trying to convert MusicXML data files to the LilyPond format.

DESCRIPTION:SenseStage is a research-creation project to develop a wireless sensor network infrastructure for live performance and interactive\, real-time environments.  The project is motivated by the economic and technical constraints of live performance contexts and the lack of existing tools for artistic work with wireless sensing platforms. The development is situated within professional artistic contexts and tested in real world scenarios. In this paper we discuss our choice of wireless platform\, the design of the hardware and firmware for the wireless nodes\, and the software integration of the wireless platform with popular media programming environments by means of a data sharing network.

SUMMARY:LAC2010 - Versum - closing concert
DESCRIPTION:Versum was born out of a desire to make people think about music and images in new and creative ways. It is a 3D audiovisual composition and performance tool that makes one look at the music and listen to the images. Compositions made with Versum can be seen and heard as voyages through 3d spaces full of sound emitting virtual objects which together constitute musical and visual pieces.
