Editor's Note: Computer Music Journal 18:2 (1994) Electronic Network Resources for Computer Music Stephen Travis Pope Computer Music Journal P. O. Box 14043 Santa Barbara, California 93107 USA electronic mail: stp@create.ucsb.edu As the fourth part of our series of notes providing information resources for the computer music community (the first three parts being the bibliography, diskography, and taxonomy of our field that appeared in recent editor's notes), this note outlines some of the publications, interactive discussions, and software archives that are available electronically via wide-area computer networks. These "information services" range from "electronic publications"--periodical newsletters that are distributed via regular electronic mail--to on-line interactive electronic discussions (bulletin board conferences), to network-accessible archives related to computer music. Some of these services require access to the global Internet electronic network, while others are freely-available to anyone with a personal computer and a telephone modem. For easier reference, I have categorized these resources according to their mode of access, and divide them into the categories of edited newsletters, unmoderated "mailing lists," electronic archives, and on-line "bulletin-board" discussions. There is naturally much overlap between these categories--e.g., interactive discussion groups that are distributed via electronic mail--and numerous "information providers" that offer several kinds of services--e.g., a newsletter and an archive. It is beyond the scope of this reference list to provide an introduction to the vast international computer networks; there are numerous books in print that survey the "electronic super-highway," and/or provide introductions to the global "Internet" network and the basic software tools that its inhabitants use. Several of the most widely-available (and often free) programs such as the "ftp" file transfer program (and its electronic-mail-based counterpart "ftpmail"), the "Archie" and "Gopher" search and retrieval tools, and the "Mosaic" interface to the "world-wide web" (WWW) are mentioned below. Readers unfamiliar with these tools are referred to the literature on wide-area networking. Much of the information included below was provided by those who manage these services, and I owe my thanks to them for their response to a query I sent out in December 1993. Other valuable information was contributed by Craig Harris (Craig@Well.sf.ca.us), from the Leonardo Electronic News, which he edits (see below), and from a list of electronic mail newsletters compiled by Kara Robinson (KRobinso@KENTVM.Kent.edu). In the spirit of practising what we preach, all of these past four editor's notes--the computer music bibliography, diskography, taxonomy, and this note--are freely available over the Internet by "anonymous ftp" from the directory pub/computer-music-journal on the network server computer named MITPress.MIT.edu. Tables of contents and abstracts of recent issues of Computer Music Journal are also available there. Readers can see what is there at any time by retrieving the file Index.t from this directory. Users of these facilities are encouraged to help keep these documents up to date by sending electronic mail with corrections and/or additions to me at CMJ@CNMAT.Berkeley.edu. ======================================================== Edited Newsletters and Electronic Publications There are a number of electronic publications for our field, ranging from periodical, edited, wide-focus newsletters such as the Music-Research Digest and The Leonardo Electronic Almanac, to unmoderated, irregular, topically-focused publications. Music-Research Digest The Music-Research electronic mail redistribution list was established after a suggestion made at a meeting in Oxford in July 1986, to provide an effective and fast means of bringing together musicologists, music analysts, computer scientists, and others working on applications of computers in music research. Anyone on any of the major international networks is welcome to submit items of interest. Material is collected by a "moderator" (Stephen Page) and remailed to every person on the list in the form of "digests." As with any forum for discussion, there are certain subject areas that are of particular interest to the group of people on this list. Initially, the list was established for people whose chief interests involve computers and their applications to music representation systems, information retrieval systems for musical scores, music printing, music analysis, musicology and ethnomusicology, and tertiary music education. The following areas are not the principal concern of this list, although overlapping subjects may well be interesting: primary and secondary education, sound generation techniques, and music composition. This restriction on subject matter has recently been reaffirmed; many readers asked the moderator to reject general articles on electronic music, and especially electronic musical instruments (MIDI, synthesizers, "how do I make the frobnyx box work on my Commodore 12399XL+??", etc.). Such areas are covered elsewhere in the electronic mail and network world (see below). To contact Stephen Page, the digest moderator, or to join the mailing list, write to Music-Research-Request@prg.oxford.ac.uk To submit a contribution to the digest, write to Music-Research@prg.oxford.ac.uk. The Leonardo Electronic Almanac Leonardo and The MIT Press are now publishing Leonardo Electronic Almanac monthly; it is edited by Craig R. Harris (Craig@WELL.sf.ca.us). Leonardo Electronic Almanac (LEA) is dedicated to providing current perspectives in the art, science and technology domains. LEA offers a variety of viewpoints, covering activities at media arts facilities and other organizations, as well as work at the individual artist's studio. LEA presents insights into international activities through columns that feature artists' statements about their own work, profiles of media in arts facilities, theoretical and technical perspectives, and reviews of major events, exhibitions and publications. It is also the goal of LEA to provide a forum for people to present their work in progress, in order to solicit input from peers and to facilitate development. Leonardo Electronic Almanac is comprised of a combination of juried articles and perspectives, solicited columns and articles, and an edited news and announcements component. Juried components will be peer-reviewed by an editorial advisory board, which will also serve as a soliciting body. LEA is published and distributed monthly over the Internet, annual subscription rates are US$25.00. Leonardo Journal subscribers and Leonardo/ISAST members receive Leonardo Electronic Almanac free. For ordering information, contact the MIT Press Journals circulation department; telephone (617) 253-2889; fax (617) 258-6779; electronic mail journals-orders@mit.edu. Music Theory On-Line The Society for Music Theory has recently begun publication of a free refereed electronic newsletter-Music Theory On-line (MTO). MTO is described as a "medium for the electronic distribution of items of interest to the world-wide community of professional and pre-professional music theorists, musicologists, composers, and performers, as well as to others concerned professionally or otherwise with music-theoretical issues." The Society is also maintaining an archive of past MTO texts in a database format that can be searched through via electronic mail servers. The MTO mail server's electronic address is ListServ@HUSC.Harvard.edu. To subscribe to MTO, send an electronic mail letter to the server with a blank subject line and the contents "subscribe mto-j your-first-name your-last-name." To get more information on how MTO works, send a letter to the list server with the contents "information mto-j" or contact the editor, Lee Rothfarb at mto-editor@HUSC.Harvard.edu. Society of Composers, Inc. On-line News The SCI On-line News (SCION) serves members of the Society of Composers, Inc. by providing up-to-date information on professional opportunities. SCION is not a replacement of, but an addition to, the SCI Newsletter. SCION now represents the fastest method of conveying time-sensitive material to members. SCI issues SCION on the first Monday of every month. Any SCI member is eligible to receive SCION at no extra charge above his or her standard membership dues. To subscribe, send the message "SUB SCION" with your name, electronic mail address, and postal address via electronic mail to Reynold Weidenaar at Weidenaar@acfcluster.nyu.edu. EMUSIC-L, EMUSIC-D, and SYNTH-L EMUSIC-L, a forum for the discussion of electronic music, artists, methods, and other topics related to the composition and performance of electronic music, including free-wheeling discussions about possible hardware and software technologies, the psychology and design on interfaces, tools for composition and performance, and other topics as they cross the collective mind of the readers. EMUSIC-L is a very informal and eclectic discussion group. EMUSIC-D is a mailing list existing solely to announce the availability of digests of the EMUSIC-L materials on the EMUSIC-L FTP site (see below). To subscribe, contact LISTSERV@AUVM.AUVM.edu. EMUSIC-D is edited; EMUSIC-L is not. The list's moderators are Eric Harnden EHarnden@AUVM.AUVM.edu and Joe McMahon XRJDM@TwinPeaks.gsfc.nasa.gov. Keywords are: electronic music, instrumental music, computers, and music composition. FineArt Forum and FineArt_On-line FineArt Forum has provided timely information to a large international audience since 1988. The subscriber list consists of individuals working in the realm where art, science and technology converge. Issues provide information about conferences and competitions, calls for presentations and research, and notices about performances. FineArt_On-line is both an archive of FineArt Forum, ISEA News, Leonardo Electronic News, and a variety of longer postings. In January of 1994 they began posting an on-line gallery. The editor is Paul Brown (brown@erc.msstate.edu). FineArt_On-line is also available over the world-wide web by WWW browser at the address http://www.msstate.edu/Fineart_Online/home.html, by gopher at the host gopher.msstate.edu with path 1/Online_services/fineart_online and port 70, or by anonymous ftp from the server ftp.msstate.edu in the directory pub/archives/fineart_online. Upnews The critically-acclaimed newsletter, "Update-Electronic- Music-News" highlights "underground" music, independent and major label artists and companies; it contains record reviews, interviews, perspectives, and a host of other topics that differ from issue to issue. Update is also attempting to close the popular music gap, or mass music gap, by bringing to the forefront those artists and aspects of the music industry that are struggling to make their voice heard. Update is providing artists and other areas of the music industry with an opportunity to have recordings, music products, and/or music services presented directly to a large music audience. To subscribe, send a message with the contents "SUBSCRIBE RMUSIC-L your-first-name your-last-name" to LISTSERV@VM.MARIST.edu. The list is edited by Christopher DeRobertis UICD@Marist.bitnet and A. Harry Williams HARRY@Marist.bitnet. Grind This list is edited by Matt Jukins (MPJ@KEPLER.UNH.EDU); keywords are: grindcore music, death metal music, and heavy thrash music. To subscribe, send mail to Grind-request@UNH.edu, to contribute, send articles to GRIND@UNH.edu. ============================================ Unmoderated Discussions and Mailing Lists Music Library Association Mailing List Indiana University is hosting a mail distribution service for the Music Library Association. This is an implementation of the "LISTSERV" electronic mail list server program. Participants can send mail to the list address that is then distributed to all "subscribers." The list for the Music Library Association includes mail distribution, mail archiving, and file/document serving. The managers of this service intend that it be used for various activities of MLA that can benefit by wide-scale distribution (such as announcements of deadlines for NOTES and the Newsletter, news items, general inquiries about MLA activities, etc.). The list should also be used for reference inquiries, and other topics of interest to the music library community. The address of the list server program is ListServ@IUBVM.UCS.Indiana.edu. Subscription to the list can be accomplished by sending the server a message whose message body consists of the line "SUBSCRIBE MLA-L your-first-name your-last-name." Subscription to the list is free. The address for contributions is MLA-L@IUBVM.UCS.Indiana.edu. The list's manager is Ralph Papakhian (Papakhi@IUBVM.UCS.Indiana.edu). Past issues of this newsletter are also archived at the list server site, and the program has facilities for retrieving them, or for querying the "database" of all past messages. Contact the organizers for more details on this. ISPW Mailing List Rick Taube at the Zentrum fu"r Kunst und Medientechnologie in Karlsruhe, Germany maintains a mailing list and ftp site for software and documents related to the IRCAM Signal Processing Workstation (ISPW).

HMSL is a language designed for small computers, in real-time interactive composition, performance and experimental environments. Readers of Computer Music Journal may be familiar with the language from articles by its developers, including Larry Polansky and David Rosenboom. One of the aims of the Forum was to provide a support environment for beginning users of HMSL, for many of whom this is their first exposure to programming, as well as for interaction between more advanced users as a stimulus for ideas. The discussions and files available provide a good guide for novices as to the sorts of directions taken by the designers and users of HMSL, the sorts of interests that have been pursued and what the HMSL environment is capable of. The HMSL Forum runs on a bulletin-board system in San Francisco, sharing messages and files in an Echomail conference several other sites and bulletin boards. It is accessible by modem at (415) 928-8240, at modem speeds up to 2400 baud. Participants geographically closer to the East Coast of the USA can avoid high telephone charges by participating through the Echomail conference on one of the New York BBSs (the NRA Gateway and the Dwight High School system). Long-distance callers can also use PCPursuit, Telenet's low-cost after-hours national network, to call the San Francisco number. The WELL's MIDI Conference The MIDI Conference is accessible on the WELL (Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link), an on-line service based in Sausalito, California USA. The conference provides information, support, and a software library for MIDI users at all levels of experience. The conference is hosted by Carter Scholz and Warren Sirota. Discussions are not moderated; the hosts are there for housekeeping purposes. Participants are free to contribute to any topic, and to create new topics. Typical topics include questions and answers about specific MIDI equipment and software; for example, Yamaha Q&A, Ensoniq VFX, and new sequencers, but discussions have encompassed nearly every aspect of electronic and computer music, whether or not it is related to MIDI. Some recent topics include: ICMC 1989, notation software, good listening in the electronic domain, call for suggestions on MIDI microtonality, music languages for micros, and beyond MIDI. The orientation of the conference is, by circumstance, perhaps more market-oriented than Computer Music Journal readers might be accustomed to, but it could prove a valuable resource as more MIDI gear finds its way into the mainstream of computer music. Certainly conference participants are open-minded enough to value new perspectives. To access the WELL, telephone (415) 332-6106, and type "newuser" at the login prompt. Then type "go midi" at any "OK" prompt to enter the MIDI Conference. Rates are US$3/hour with an US$8 monthly minimum. Compuserve Packet Network access is available at an additional US$5/hour. Payment is by credit card. USENET News Groups Related to Music As a final reference, the following is a (slightly filtered and sorted) list of "news groups" related to music that are available through the USENET "news" program.
