  Max at Seventeen 1
Max took its modern shape during a heated, excited period of interaction and ferment among a small group of researchers and musicians, composers, and performers at IRCAM during the period 1985-1990; writing Max would probably not have been possible in less stimulating and demanding surroundings.
Mathews and Moore, 1970] emphasized the handling of periodically sampled ``voltage control" signals, the notion of control in RTSKED was of sporadically occuring events which caused state changes in the synthesizer.
Max provides a separate data type for audio signals which does not mix smoothly with messages; conversion from audio to messages is problematic and the scheduler treats ``control" and ``audio" processing separately.

 Max Mathews - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Max Vernon Mathews, a pioneer in the world of computer music, was born in Columbus, Nebraska, on November 13, 1926.
For the rest of the century, he continued as a leader in digital audio research, synthesis, and human-computer interaction as it pertains to music performance.
In 1961, Mathews arranged the well-known song Daisy Bell ("Daisy, daisy") for an uncanny performance by computer-synthesized human voice, using technology developed by John Kelly of Bell Laboratories and others.

 Wired 2.03: Wave of the Future
In 1963 Max Mathews, then a researcher at the Bell Laboratories in New Jersey, published a paper in which he predicted that the computer would become the ultimate musical instrument.
Mathews immediately realized that it would be relatively straightforward to adapt this process to the writing and playback of music.
As Mathews recalls, "we had decks of punch cards on which the computer scores were produced, which we would carry around in boxes." These they would load into a car, drive into Manhattan to the IBM building, on Madison Avenue and 57th Street.

A telecommunications engineer and amateur violinist working in Bell Telephone Laboratories' acoustic and behavioral reseach department during the mid-'50s, Mathews was originally assigned to explore the digital transmission and recording of speech patterns, a process he realized could be easily adapted to the composition and playback of music as well.
Mathews next teamed with inventor Robert Boie to develop the Radio Baton, a hyperinstrument allowing the user to conduct a computer orchestra with a simple wave of the wand over an electromagnetic field.
Mathews also pioneered another computer music program called Conductor; another interactive real-time graphic multimedia program was dubbed "MAX" in his honor.

Max is named in honor of computer music pioneer Max V Mathews.
Max includes over 150 objects, ranging from simple arithmetic and logical operators to timing functions to complex mechanisms like a 32-track event sequencer and a score follower.
But as one who has used Max for over two years and who has watched it grow from a rather funky alpha version to the current release, I have abiding faith in the development process.

By the end of the 1960s, Max Mathews, the father of computer music, was increasingly dissatisfied with the music that computers were producing.
Max was later ported to the NeXT personal computer, where it could be run with the help of peripheral hardware processors in a configuration called the ISPW (IRCAM Signal Processing Workstation).
Max was then released commercially as a kind of erector set for MIDI input, processing, and output and is now under active development by Cycling '74 (the sidebar “On the Web” provides URLs for all the developers mentioned in this article) for both the Mac and Windows computers.

 Chapter Three: How MIDI works 13
MAX, named after Max Mathews, an innovator in computer music research, was originally developed for a Macintosh, but was ported to the IRCAM NeXT-based workstation, and re-released commercially for the Macintosh (now PC also).
MAX patches usually take real-time MIDI input, process the information according to the composer's specifications and output what could be a very sophisticated set of responses to MIDI instruments.
In Mathew's system a score file of MIDI note data can be read and output by his Conductor program, while expressive musical parameters such as tempo, dynamics, timbre, or any of the MIDI controller values can be controlled in real time by the Radio Drum.

Max was originally written by Miller Puckette as the Patcher editor for the Macintosh at IRCAM in the mid-1980s to give composers access to an authoring system for interactive computer music.
In 1989, IRCAM developed and maintained a concurrent version of Max ported to the IRCAM Signal Processing Workstation for the NeXT (and later SGI and Linux), called Max/FTS (FTS standing for "Faster Than Sound", and being analogous to a forerunner to MSP enhanced by a hardware DSP board on the computer).
Max has a number of extensions and incarnations; most notably, a set of audio extensions to the software appeared in 1997, ported from Pure Data.

 Current Perspectives in the Digital Synthesis of Musical Sounds
In a famous article in Science magazine from 1963, Max Mathews (Mathews, 1963), gave a very optimistic view of the computer as a musical instrument.
The author, a pioneer of computer music, said that generating sounds from numbers was a completely general way to synthesize sound because the bandwidth and dynamic range of hearing are bounded and that therefore any sound we can perceive may be generated in this way.
The first digital synthesis system, Music V, (Mathews, 1969) developed by Max Mathews during the 60's, introduced the concept of the unit generator as a digital version of the modules of analog synthesizers.

MUSIC 1, which was quickly replaced by MUSIC II running on an IBM 704 and written in assembler code was the first real computer synthesis programme, developed by Max Mathews of Bell Laboratories in 1957.
Mathews saw the function of the GROOVE system as being a compositional tool which the composer/conductor manipulates in real time:
The GROOVE system remained in operation until the end of the seventies when Honeywell withdrew form the computer market.Max Mathews (Now professor emeritus at Stanford) is still actively involved in digital music performance.

 Create Digital Music » Before the Wii: Max Mathews’ Original Wireless Electronic Baton, and More Electronic ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
But Mathews certainly has proven to be ahead of his time, as millions of mass-market devices executing basically the same idea ship worldwide in the fall.
The Radio Baton was probably the first real baton controller, derived from Max Mathews’ early “Daton” controller which sensed X/Y position by impacting the surface (so, therefore, not really a baton so much as a kind of digital drumstick).
Mathews and Buchla are just two among many others who have done something like this; see the article below for an extensive history of alternative controllers, current as of 1999, by Joseph Paradiso, noting a number of other batons (along with lots of other interesting controllers).

 H-Net Review: Heather E. Mathews on Max Ernst: A Retrospective
Max Ernst's sixty-year career was the subject of this year's major summer exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, which brought together some 180 of the Surrealist's paintings, sculptures, and works on paper.
With "Max Ernst and Politics," Ludger Derenthal provides a reading of Ernst's life in terms of the artist's political involvements, responses to the First World War and to the rise of Fascism in Germany and France.
Thomas Gaehtgens' chapter "Max Ernst and the Great Master" sets out to demonstrate that Ernst's work is significantly informed by the artist's knowledge of art history.

Other competitors claim speeds of 350 fps but, to date, we have never tested a competitor's bow that is as fast as the Black Max 2.
The Black Max 2 is also available in an 80% let-off version and, for those who really have the need for speed, you can get it with a 50% let-off Turbo MaxCam.

 Guest - Richard Boulanger, Greg Thompson & Max V. Mathews
Abstract: "StarDust" and "DarkMatter" are two of Boulanger's most recent real-time multi-media compositions that use a Mathews' Radio Baton to trigger, transform, process, and spatialize a quartet of physical models in 4-channel surround using Max/MSP.
ABOUT THE RADIO BATON: Developed by the "father of computer music," Max Mathews (m.v.mathews@worldnet.att.net), the Radio Baton is a system aimed at providing a more expressive way of performing on computers (http://csounds.com/mathews/).
The sensors trace the locations of the ends of the batons and send their X, Y, and Z coordinates to a computer that is programmed to interpret the performer's gestures in a musically useful way.
