In 2010 I made an #AudioVisual piece using #Haskell, #OpenGL, and #SC3:

This weekend I ported it from Haskell to #C, using #SDL2 as framework including #audio in the same program (SC3 was overkill for the simple sounds, and maintaining Haskell code to keep working with changes to the ecosystem is too much busy-work).

I changed the colours (suggested by @netzzz), moved the #physics #simulation from the #video thread to the #audio thread for tighter timing (the SC3 version scheduled events with bundles), and added a #RingBuffer to send the visualisation data back to the video thread (for smoother animation with good a/v sync).

I also did various optimisations, using tables instead of trigonometric functions, using (client-side) vertex arrays instead of glBegin().

License changed from #GPL v3 or later to #AGPL v3 only, in anticipation of compiling it to run in the browser using Emscripten.

There's still (at least) one bug: after some time the program freezes and uses 100% CPU, I think it happens when the ball count limit is reached. Takes a long time so will be hard to figure out what is going on...

This is the crustiest #camera I have seen yet. I'm not sure if this #Revue #SC3 is supposed to look like that.

#sc3

@melissasage for algorithmic synthesis the two biggest are #puredata and #supercollider.

#pd is boxes and wires graphical user interface, similar in some ways to #maxmsp . It also has external plugins for graphics and video.

#sc3 is text code, and has more support for things like multichannel signals with easy to use libraries for #ambisonics for spatial sound.

Both have active mailing lists.

Other software like #tidalcycles for #livecoding patterns use SC3 as a sound engine, and are probably easier to get musical results with quickly.

Pd has #netpd for collaborative jamming online, I don't know how busy it is but it has some nice sequencers instruments and effects, all built in Pd.
