| Press Release: Symbolic Composer 5.1 3D Released For Windows |
|
--- VENICE, ITALY, 2004 JUN 10 --- We are proud to introduce you the latest version of Symbolic Composer.
Symbolic Composer 5.1 3D for the Windows is an exciting step forward bringing
full VRML2 standard 3D Generation into music compositioning. The VRML 3D extension
allows efficiently to experiment with virtul algorithmic architecture, and visualize
compositional data, or produce music based on 3 dimensional "themes". SCOM 3D is the
only program that allows advanced 3D and music modeling by algorithmic means.

VRML is an acronym for the Virtual Reality Modeling Language. Using VRML you can
craft your own three-dimensional virtual worlds. You can build your own virtual
rooms, buildings, cities, mountains, and planets. You can fill your virtual worlds
with virtual furniture, cars, people, spacecraft, or anything else you can dream
up. Your imagination is the only limit.
Perhaps the most exciting feature of VRML is its ability to link virtual worlds
together on the Web. Using linking, you can connect
a door of your world to another VRML world described elsewhere on the Web. VRML
linking puts the entire Internet at your fingertips, enabling you to explore
the network as if wandering through a vast 3D universe.
SCOM 3D will put this concept a little further and it gives you the tools to
generate three dimensional worlds and objects by algorithms. Algorithmic
generation helps you to design more vivid virtual objects than doing it by
handcrafting. Instead of manually writing down the VRML code you'll be
writing the code that generates VRML. You don't have to specify individual
objects one by one, but you will be defining the algorithms that "manufacture"
the 3D world.
You might be a computer enthusiast or an artist or a musician looking for a
new medium. You probably understand a little about computer programming,
and have done painting with Photoshop or made music with MIDI sequencers
and synthesizers. SCOM 3D lets you learn a new way of constructing 3D and
music, not by doodling around with the mouse this time, but designing
them on the pure algorithmic level.
Depending how much you previously know about 3D graphics or music composition
with MIDI synthesizers, you may need some brush-up with the basic concepts.
SCOM 3D is the ideal tool to learn them. For the techical VRML expert SCOM
3D provides added flexibility and ease of programming, since SCOM's
VRML syntax is very much the same as the official one.
From musical perspective Symbolic Composer 5.1 3D is the most advanced
and largest music
composition language available, containing hundreds of algorithms that
pose no restrictions for musical creativity. Its massive
knowledge base from the past 500 years of composing history, plus all
the mathematical and physical functions of the future composing nake SCOM 3D
an investment that lasts.
Algorithms step beyond any other MIDI program, and include
filter, shift, transpose, retrograde, mix, analyze, and morph.
Generators include fractals and chaos, L-systems, programmable neurons,
Fibonacci series, antenna theory, autocatalysis, Fourier
analysis/synthesis, number theory, solar systems, filters and recursive
structures. All are available to control melodies, chords, rhythms,
velocities, MIDI controllers, and compositional structures. Included are also complete hyper-documentation, programmable phrase
library, 300 chords/scales/tunings, and example score files to start
with your explorations into the unknown.
Notice: SCOM 3D will not teach you the details of VRML. The documentation
provides full VRML2 definition and VRML2 Macros, that generate the equivalent
VRML2 syntax form. The documentation also includes basic examples how
to apply the macros with SCOM and Lisp functions. VRML viewing is done with
a browser that is extended with a VRML plugin, or with a standalone VRML
viewer application, both available free on the internet. Cortona plugin
from www.parallelgraphics.com is the most advanced viewer available, and
suggested for viewing the SCOM 3D results. Music generation uses MIDI
files, and you need a sequencer, notation software, or a software
synthesizer to play back the results.
