Homework #1: Timbre Studies

Due date: 2008.1.30 11:59:59pm (or thereabout), Wednesday.

Reading

  • Real-Sound-Synthesis:
    • chapter 3
    • sections 4.0, 4.1, and 4.2
    • chapter 10


Specification (part 1 of 2): Crafting Timbre's with FM

Specification (part 2 of 2): Musical Statement

  • construct two chucku's, according to the following specifications:
    • like a haiku, a chucku should contain exactly 3 lines of code (each less than 80 characters)
    • each chucku should generate sound
    • 5/7/5 pattern optional, but try to make the code "pretty"
    • check out one line chuck crazy to see similarly compact examples
    • the chucku's should be standalone (i.e., no external audio or chuck files)
    • (thanks to Chris + kijjaz for the idea)


Note

  • Have fun with it!!!

    • conveys your ideas/comments in constructing each program
    • contains instructions on running your programs
