jarmlib: Jack Armitage's (mostly TidalCycles) live coding library
This is not a "working repo", I just update this occassionally to make what I do a bit more shareable.
Currently this doesn't include much SuperCollider / SuperDirt code as that's a mess. Also not included as of now is Emacs stuffs. If you poke me I might do something about that.
Mostly what I'm trying to achieve with live coding is efficiency, flexibility, minimal cognitive overhead, and easy memorisation (both cognitive and embodied).
Overview
- Three main Haskell files:
-
Boot.hs
: the main entry point. -
Lib.hs
: extra functionality. -
Targets.hs
: destinations for sending Tidal pattersn to (AKAOSCTargets
).
-
- Some random SuperCollider bits:
-
tidal-midi-setup.scd
possibly the only thing here that's useful to anyone other than me.
-
Boot.hs
- Main entry point kept simple as possible
- Includes
hoogle
if you have that installed
Lib.hs
(in order of import)
-
Shorthands.hs
: shorthand versions of standard Tidal functions/parameters. Because life is short. -
Signal.hs
: efficient ways to work with "continuous functions". -
Sequence.hs
: number sequences. -
Param.hs
: efficient ways to work with groups of parameters. -
Harmony.hs
: akeyTable
and aharmonise
function for writing in-key chord sequences efficiently. -
Composition.hs
: experiments in writing Tidal "tracks". -
MIDI.hs
: any custom MIDI stuff. -
Misc.hs
: misc. -
Compatibility.hs
: anything deprecated.
Targets.hs
-
SuperDirt.hs
(basically the rest of the defaultBootTidal.hs
) -
Bitwig/BitwigAPI.hs
(experimental) - Other experiments
Setup
- Set the absolute path in
Boot.hs
- Run
:script /path/to/Boot.hs
when booting Tidal (this will depend on your editor)
Customisation
- Comment out what you do/don't want inside
Boot.hs
,Targets.hs
andLib.hs
