BOOMS

For my Master thesis, I have developed a music editor that is actually a structure editor aimed at creative editing. This work should be documented better on-line, but time is short...

Anyway, the system is not in a working state anymore, I have written it in an old Allegro Lisp for Windows, which is no longer supported, since they have modified the Windows interface. I hope that at some point in the future I will revive it, since the idea is something which is still not available in any decent music editor. Here is a proof that it wasn't a dream...

The system is described in my thesis and more recently in "Abstraction as a Means for End-User Computing in Creative Applications" (available as a PostScript and a PDF). There is also a talk I gave recently (with text comments).

I did this work under the supervision of Mira Balaban, and with additional help from Michael Elhadad.
