	Interactive music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Interactive music also known as nonlinear music or adaptive music, is synonymous with soundtracks to interactive media and in particular computer games.
		According to composer Todd Winkler (2001), interactive music is "a music composition or improvisation where software interprets a live performance to affect music generated or modified by computers," however, as he also points out, all music is "interactive" to a certain extent.
		Interactive music as a self-contained work of art, made viable with the advent of multi-channel, multimedia PCs and delivered on CD-ROM, was pioneered by UK artists, Modified.

	Interactive music (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Interactive music is normally viewed from a technical rather than an aesthetic perspective.
		Although many of the methods of generating interactive music are still reliant on the purely modular approach, what is required is an outlook based more on a halfway point between this modular approach and the generative approach.
		Interactivity can be based on very complex rules, but it need not be any more complicated than creating a track in ACID or some other loop based sequencer and exporting each individual piece of the score in the modular forms described earlier.

	Composing for Interactive Music
		Music that works well with a game, especially music that is ready and able to change itself unpredictably is likely to be boring if listened to by itself.
		Music that changes in response to gamestate has to be set up to respond to signals from the game program itself, and this just isn't in the MIDI spec.
		If you’re a producer looking to set a spec for interactive music in your project, of if you’re a composer and the producer asks you to choose the ways in which the music will respond to the gamestate, be sure not to overdo it.

		Likewise, Squidsoup's altzero range of projects present music as 3D graphic spaces: depending on one's navigation around those spaces, the music adapts and morphs to reflect the mood of the images and the virtual location of the user.
		Music played through a computer is diverse and, taking fun as one of its core principles, allows young users to explore music in ways they have not previously been able, and to experiment with sound and rhythm without the long grunt work associated with learning a traditional instrument.
		Music composed through a computer is far from easy, and its learning curves are steep and challenging to the young creative mind.

	Interactive Web Music
		Interactive music combines computer programming and musical composition to create a virtual environment in which the music content is influenced by external stimuli.
		In its simplest form, interactive music can be thought of as the triggering of sounds or musical passages by a user's actions.
		Truly interactive music, however, not only responds to simple user actions but also takes into account what's happening in the environment at the time the action takes place.

		....we use standard computational music analysis techniques found in current computer music research, most of these methods need to be pre processed or adapted before the mapping to motion editing parameters takes place.
		Even in non realtime music applications, there is the need for better representations of music to make the system commands more intuitive, by making them correspond more closely to musical concepts and manipulate more meaningful musical data objects than is the current practice.
		Unfortunately, there is often a discrepancy between the ideal realization of an interactive system, in which the musician and machine carry on a high level musical discourse, and the realization, in which the musician....

		For the growing number of professionals in computer music, composers, performers, and teachers who are looking for more from the computer music systems that are now available, Interactive Music Systems provides the first comprehensive survey and evaluation of new computer programs that can analyze and compose music in live performance.
		Although Rowe focuses primarily on musical motivations and possibilities of interactive systems, he also takes up such practical considerations as how to build, analyze, and extend these systems and looks at the impact of music theory, music cognition, and artificial intelligence on the design of interactive systems and on ensemble performance.
		He describes in detail both the theory and practice of his own real-time interactive music program, Cypher, and further illustrates basic concepts and characteristic issues using the graphic MIDI programming environment Max.

		If recognize, that modern music is based on important before unknown features of human perception, then it seems to me, that in such cases great classic composers were sometimes far in front of their time.
		The clear example is interaction of music (sound sensations are projected in auditory cortex) and body’s movement sensations (are projected in sensory-motor cortex).
		Essential current parameters of music signal must be embedded in created alterating pictures and then movements of eyes’ muscles will favourably interact with music signal.
