RIP
This is one of those thread titles where you think, wow, that really resonates, but why? I haven't thought of that name in years, but the Intelligent Music apps were my gateway drug to all of this: masterclasses in UI design, with every precious pixel exquisitely placed, and stupidly ahead of their time in their combination of sequenced and stochastic processes. OvalTune was a particular joy – deep interactively generative music and graphics with no visible interface at all – though for me their masterpiece was John Offenhartz's probabilistically humanisable MIDI clip sequencer UpBeat, which is the one app on any platform I'd select to bring back from the dead. None of it made anyone any money and they were already long out of business when I discovered them in the nineties, but they blew the bloody doors off the possibilities of music software.
They were playing his music on the radio the other day - now I know why. RIP.
I knew Joel, he taught me Kyma and much more. He was a great guy, and inspiring teacher. And a wonderful pizza lunch companion. His book is essential, covering the history of electro acoustic music. He also went skinny dipping with Robert Moog and worked with John Cage. I’m very lucky to have crossed paths with him and hope we meet again the next time around.
This is a new name to me but I appreciate you sharing all that, sounds like he will truly be missed. Just picked up his book on iBooks. Priced very well at $4.99, looks super interesting- thanks for the tip.
