[PD] Pd undergraduate research project

[Kyle Klipowicz]

Hello list~

I'm doing a research project in my senior year of undergraduate
mathematics study, and have found a professor in the department
willing to proctor it.

It is my intention to use Pd for this project, but I am stumped at how
to get the professor (with no computer music experience, although he
specializes in harmonic analysis) involved.  I've shown him Miller's
book, and also The Computer Music Tutorial and Dodge & Jerse.

What I am wondering is if anyone on the list has done something
similar, and how they went about it.  I am not really keen on doing a
very theoretical, all on paper research project, but rather using Pd
to explore some established mathematical ideas (Fourier analysis,
Bessel functions, linear algebra, etc.) and relating them to
sound/video processing.

Can anybody pass along some ideas that might help me to organize the
curriculum for my semester?  I'd be extremely grateful, because the
deciding factor that propelled me into math was the fact that Miller
Puckette has a math Phd!
