This book presents the task of creating that all-important portfolio for today’s print and interactive design fields in a manageable series of steps. Portfolio Laboratory for Graphic Design serves as a sourcebook for graphic design students who are planning the design of their portfolio for applications to graduate schools, grants, scholarships, employment opportunities, and fellowships. Strategies in design principles are illustrated with examples of successful portfolios from design students along with tips and insights from top professionals in the field.

For the growing number of professionals in computer music, composers, performers, and teachers who are looking for more from the computer music systems that are now available, Interactive Music Systems provides the first comprehensive survey and evaluation of new computer programs that can analyze and compose music in live performance. Although Rowe focuses primarily on musical motivations and possibilities of interactive systems, he also takes up such practical considerations as how to build, analyze, and extend these systems and looks at the impact of music theory, music cognition, and artificial intelligence on the design of interactive systems and on ensemble performance. He describes in detail both the theory and practice of his own real-time interactive music program, Cypher, and further illustrates basic concepts and characteristic issues using the graphic MIDI programming environment Max. In a concluding chapter, Rowe assesses developments in hardware and software with implications for the evolution of interactive systems, including their implementation in multipleprocessor environments, the impact of real-time digital signal processing, and extended prospects for sensing performance gesture. Robert Rowe is Associate Director of the Music Technology Program at New York University.

Musicians begin formal training by acquiring a body of musical concepts commonly known as musicianship. These concepts underlie the musical skills of listening, performance, and composition. Like humans, computer music programs can benefit from a systematic foundation of musical knowledge. This book explores the technology of implementing musical processes such as segmentation, pattern processing, and interactive improvisation in computer programs. It shows how the resulting applications can be used to accomplish tasks ranging from the solution of simple musical problems to the live performance of interactive compositions and the design of musically responsive installations and Web sites. Machine Musicianship is both a programming tutorial and an exploration of the foundational concepts of musical analysis, performance, and composition. The theoretical foundations are derived from the fields of music theory, computer music, music cognition, and artificial intelligence. The book will be of interest to practitioners of those fields, as well as to performers and composers. The concepts are programmed using C++ and Max. The accompanying CD-ROM includes working versions of the examples, as well as source code and a hypertext document showing how the code leads to the program's musical functionality.

This supplement to Interactive Music Systems contains audio and program examples that document a variety of systems and the music they produce. An extensive library of Macintosh software allows the user to experiment with or adapt existing interactive systems. Some parts of the library require the presence of underlying software environments, such as SrnallTalk, LISP, or Opcode's Max Language. The program discussed most extensively on interactive music systems, Robert Rowe's Cypher, will run on any Macintosh computer.
