SUMMARY
Programming for Musicians and Digital Artists: Creating Music with ChucK offers a complete introduction to programming in the open source music language ChucK. In it, you’ll learn the basics of digital sound creation and manipulation while you discover the ChucK language. As you move example-by-example through this easy-to-follow book, you’ll create meaningful and rewarding digital compositions and “instruments” that make sound and music in direct response to program logic, scores, gestures, and other systems connected via MIDI or the network.
ABOUT THE BOOK
A digital musician must manipulate sound precisely. ChucK is an audio-centric programming language that provides precise control over time, audio computation, and user interface elements like track pads and joysticks. Because it uses the vocabulary of sound, ChucK is easy to learn even for artists with little or no exposure to computer programming.

Example-by-example, you’ll create meaningful digital compositions and “instruments” that respond to program logic, scores, gestures, and other systems connected via MIDI or the network. You’ll also experience how ChucK enables the on-the-fly musical improvisation practiced by communities of “live music coders” around the world.
