Abstract

This chapter exemplifies the usage of Csound in a live electronics setup. After introducing the general idea, two branches of working with spoken word as live input are shown. Knuth analyses the internal rhythm and triggers events at recognised accents, whereas Alma analyses sounding units of different sizes and brings them back in different modes. The concept is shown as a work in progress, with both realisations for improvisation and sketches for possible compositions.
