ChucK: A Computer Music Programming Language


November 16, 2007 lecture by Ge Wang for the Stanford University Human-Computer Interaction Seminar (CS 547). In the first part of this talk, Ge presents the design, philosophy, and development of ChucK, a computer music programming language intending to provide a different approach, expressiveness, and thinking with respect to time and parallelism in audio programming - as well as a platform for precise and rapid experimentation. In the second part of this presentation, Ge describes his adventures with the “laptop orchestra”: a new type of large-scale, computer-mediated music ensemble.

    I agree. The chuck software is a great idea but the explanations he gives are wooly. That goes for the documentation too. Of course this is open source software and so there is only so much one can expect for free but it would help if Ge Wang bothered to empathise enough to know what it was once like to not know the ins and outs of the chuck syntax. As a result, this video is very draining to watch, which is a shame because some of us are desperately trying to learn. :-(

    sorry, you reached your limit of ‘kind of’’s, ‘actually’’s and ‘like’’s in the first 10 minutes… i can’t watch any more…

    Of course you have to have fortnights and microfortnights, it’s not a real language without them.

    don’t get me wrong I think this is cool

    I just really don’t see anything amazing about this, all it does is tell a soundcard to play a frequency? also the chamber music didn’t really sound good.

    i’m just lost as to what the point of this is

    So you just watched 1 hour and 25 minutes and a. learned nothing despite he answers your question within 20 minutes and b. were thinking this ridiculous thought all the way through. Or…I’m guessing, you didn’t actually watch it. You decided to pass on your very limited knowledge of synth. Congratulations on your synthesizer that has an arpeggiator and sequencer ability.

    What is the point…..all of this is just hindering musical creativity…..you shouldn’t have to write code just to make a sound…..thats why synthesis was invented, its also why step-sequencers, arpeggiators etc etc were invented

    cool. jackhammering together a project using ChucK/OSC/multitouch interfaces. thanks for the vid. it beats starting out from page one on the manual ;)
