4th ACM SIGPLAN International Workshop on Functional Art, Music, Modelling and Design

FARM 2016 presents an evening of performances that employ functional programming techniques in whole or in part, performances that push forward the state of the art, and presentations of highly-developed practice. The audio will be generated mostly through functional programming techniques. Those techniques will be used in live coding and are present in the generative systems to be presented (with the exception of Yullippe’s ambient/techno live performance accompanying the performance of a system for generated visuals). The musical genres represented include art music, noise, experimental music, ambient, techno, and chiptunes. Various visuals will be presented, ranging from code and an interpreter in the case of live coding to system visualization to rendered graphics.
