Kontinuum: Music That Performs Its Code
A music system that stores compositions as executable code and performs them live instead of playing fixed recordings.
Field notes
Kontinuum describes a composition as a structured document containing patterns, instruments, automation, arrangement, mixing, probabilities, and transformations, rather than a fixed audio file. Its example uses Euclidean rhythm, rotation, degradation, and humanization functions, while the page says a shared seed can reproduce audio sample for sample. Listen, DJ, and Produce surfaces are presented, but iPhone TestFlight and macOS DMG releases are marked as coming.
