In order to establish these parallels, it is important to create a solid abstraction which can subsequently be used to derive the notions of software creation and composing the music as its subclasses. I believe that this definition (next paragraph below) of Document Processing activity
can get me to sufficiently good definition of the the needed abstraction:
Documents serve to archive and communicate information. Document processing is the activity
of operating on information captured in some form of persistent medium. Traditionally, that
medium is paper, and documents are bundles of paper with information captured in
print or in writing.
This definition, using the most general notion of the object called document
, is my starting point. In the following sections of this article, I will present the process of creation of a "text" document (think of a news article, blog, op-ed as more specific instances of such text document) using the most technologically advanced text management tools - Wordpress' just released Gutenberg editor.
Next, I will ask markd2 to pick a sufficiently simple "piece of music" and create it using his preferred selection of tools musician use today. Having both "documents" defined in terms of steps of the process used to create them, I am hoping that we could establish the parallels, which would allow us to identify the new tools for the music composers that would make composing more fun.
This issue is really the most important one to document and discuss - nothing else will make sense without it. My general thought to apply the tasks from the software development process to the music development process and then use the solutions from software development "steps" to the related music development steps is not worth a penny until we have a sufficiently sized collection of related pairs to analyze (see more about that here)
Composing music and a writing (composing) software are very similar activities; when taking the appropriately high abstract view (see Parallels between software and music development), that similarity becomes easily apparent.
The intent of this project is to "carry over" as many software tools and techniques to the composing music domain as possible
In order to advance the software tools dedicated to simplify the music composition process, we will analyze with sufficient amount of details the process of using the software tools to create new "piece of software". Having that done we could re-create the "music software tools" by extrapolating techniques used in software tools used in the software development process.
Quite obviously, the tools and skills (note that I am implying the software tools, and skills of applying these tools) used in the software development process are the most advanced, because software developers are best suited to create tools for software development.
The general idea I am using here is to create the definitions of a few "document" creation and management process (using "document" almost as generically as the word "object" in the software development parlance):
Then I want to point out all tools and techniques used to manage the life-cycle of these documents. This is really the part of this project that could inspire you to document the process of composing the piece of music using the analogs of the tools I presented so far, correctly expecting that quite few of these tools would have to be invented (I am dreaming about the composer's debugger tool, or even cooler the orchestrator tool)
PlayScore takes traditional music scanning to the next level. Using the latest techniques in Optical Music Recognition (OCR for music), PlayScore plays music as it should sound, naturally and smoothly.
PlayScore uses ReadScoreLib โ Optical Score Recognition cross platform library for converting multi-page printed musical score images to MIDI and MusicXML. ReadScoreLib processes a typical page of music in a few seconds on the iPad, less on a modern Mac or PC.
