Hello,<br>
<br>
I apologize for the intrusion but the pure-data list hosts exactly
the people we are looking for: computer musicians who code. We're
trying to figure out how software engineering research can help
computer musicians or if computer musicians need any help.<br>

you code in languages geared towards music (e.g., Pure Data, Max
MSP, Chuck, SuperCollider, etc.) or make music in other
programming languages like C, Java, C++, Javascript, etc.?</p>

you! We the PIs, Gregory Burlet and Abram Hindle, are from the
Department of Computing Science at the University of Alberta and
are conducting a survey of computer musicians to investigate how
this demographic of software developers program musical
instruments or applications.</p>
