Book Description

This book is intended as a user-friendly introduction to music and computers for college and upper-division secondary students. By organizing a presentation around interactive visual and sonic examples, we hope to provide a resource and guide for those just beginning to look at the field of computer music, as well as for more advanced computer composers who might benefit from a fresh insight.
