I called the team (Joe Kucera, Tim Labor and Peter Otto) to the stage to share the applause, and it was clear from the crowd's reaction, that there was widespread appreciation of their collaborative contributions.
Miller, by simply by exercising the casual authority that he has (and is), and student Mark Danks, with the impressively expanded capability of his GEM work linking audio and visual synthesis.
Miller's re-creation of this work, by the way, was a technological tour-de-force whose significance was not lost on the computer-literate ICMC audience.

Miller Puckette is also the author of Pure data (pd), a graphical programming language for the creation of interactive computer music and multimedia works, written in the 1990s with input from many others in the computer music and free software communities.
It is the third major branch of the family of patcher programming languages known as Max (Max/FTS, ISPW Max, Max/MSP, jMax, etc.) originally developed by Miller Puckette and company at IRCAM.
The core of Pd is written and maintained by Miller Puckette and includes the work of many developers, making the whole package very much a community effort.

Cort Lippe, Robert Rowe, Miller Puckette, Terry Pender and Rick Bassett were the guest professors and composers.
Miller Puckette, who began the panel with a short demonstration of his PD software, was unusually energetic as he described, among other things, a possible new protocol called FUDI which would replace MIDI and utilize ethernet communications instead of the serial port.
The final piece of the conference was an improvisation with Rick Bassett at piano, Terry Pender on mandolin, Cort Lippe on an ISPW, and Miller Puckette using his Pure Data software with GEM (by Mark Danks) to add a live graphical component.

 David Zicarelli Interview
It's been easier to achieve a sort of technical excellence with Max because Miller Puckette's foundation was better than the ones in the Intelligent Music programs.
Currently, I am using some of Miller's new Pd project for my new program MSP, and I will be throwing back some changes I made in his code so maybe they will be incorporated.
Miller's new project Pure Data (Pd) is aimed at addressing the fact that Max isn't very good at dealing with data.

 Pure data - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pure Data (or Pd) is a graphical programming language developed by Miller Puckette in the 1990s for the creation of interactive computer music and multimedia works.
It is released under a license similar to the BSD license.
This makes the program extensible through a public API, and encourages developers to add their own control and audio routines.

Pitch detection is a very hard thing to do and so I lucked out when I found an external called fiddle~ written by Miller Puckette for Max/Msp.
It was perfect for what I wanted to do and although it only really detected the pitch of the loudest harmonic it had had enough threshold controls to work well enough with my laptop’s built in mic.

 Lewis on Max   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
To shed some light on this phenomenon, I feel that it is necessary to move past the purely technical (since Miller and David Zicarelli certainly are aware of these shortcomings, and I am hardly a super wizard programmer myself).
The modularity problems led me to say that "Max is a low level program disguised as a high level language." I did say this to Michael Pelz-Sherman, and I also mentioned it to Miller during my day-visit to IRCAM in May 1992.
Replying to my query about how he reconciled the analog-synth approach with structured programming, Miller basically said that Max was excellent for quick prototyping, while for the heavy stuff it was better to use the C escape hatch.

Developed in the late '80s at IRCAM, a French research institute for computer music, by the American programmer and music theorist Miller Puckette, the original Max was named for Puckette's colleague Max Mathews, a computer music pioneer.
Soon after, Zicarelli developed a complementary program that would become MSP, which stands for Max Signal Processing (and which corresponds to Miller Puckette's full initials).
The lone symbol of dot-com decadence, a Herman Miller Aeron chair, was bought at a bankruptcy auction a few blocks away and wheeled back to the office.
