Inside Computer Music is an investigation of how new technological developments have influenced the creative possibilities of composers of computer music in the last 50 years. This book combines detailed research into the development of computer music techniques with nine case studies that analyze key works in the musical and technical development of computer music. The book's companion website offers demonstration videos of the techniques used and downloadable software. There, readers can view interviews and test emulations of the software used by the composers for themselves. The software also presents musical analyses of each of the nine case studies to enable readers to engage with the musical structure aurally and interactively.

Reviews for Inside Computer Music

"""It is rare to find such well-curated analytical material on electroacoustic music. I have known Francis Dhomont's Phonurgie since its creation and talked with the composer about it many times. I analyzed, performed, and taught the work for the past 20 years, and yet, there was so much new information to discover here. This book will deepen my appreciation for these compositions and present an excellent resource for my students."" -- Hans Tutschku, Harvard University"
