        I had that set up with the wxwidgets version
      • 2007-03-29 08822, 2007

        oh, and it's an extra bonus if it's possible to convert everything to lowercase

        good, I'll try it and see if it works as expected :)

      • 2007-03-29 08841, 2007

        Regrettably, GTK has a theme engine that mimics KDE, but not the other way around.

        MusicBrainz is a database of music metadata, you want to create a music player/generator

        my idea is to get it really simple and really easy... to make it sort of like.. what do you say ... Digg for user created music? or something like youtube for music
      • 2007-03-29 08803, 2007

        collect the data

      • 2007-03-29 08849, 2007

      • intgr
        And how would it be related to mathematical music generation?

      • 2007-03-29 08842, 2007

      • SnadB0y_
        and to track the best possible commercially successful qualities as well
      • 2007-03-29 08800, 2007

      • intgr
        Well, for the latter, you'd first need a database of music qualities.

        Pandora does that.
      • 2007-03-29 08821, 2007

      • SnadB0y_
        yes, that can be done by pandora
      • 2007-03-29 08824, 2007

      • SnadB0y_
        or even mit
      • 2007-03-29 08828, 2007

      • SnadB0y_
        mit does this same thing
      • 2007-03-29 08840, 2007

      • intgr
        Oh.
      • 2007-03-29 08845, 2007

      • SnadB0y_
        but my point is that usually people work the otherway around to find math from music
      • 2007-03-29 08849, 2007

      • SnadB0y_
        but i want the reverse
      • 2007-03-29 08853, 2007

      • SnadB0y_
        music from math
      • 2007-03-29 08811, 2007

      • SnadB0y_
        and to find signatures, that leads to quality music
      • 2007-03-29 08818, 2007

      • intgr
        Okay.
      • 2007-03-29 08826, 2007

        i heard that mit is working on a 3d model in which one can nagvigate to clusters
      • 2007-03-29 08833, 2007

      • SnadB0y_
        clusters are of similar music
      • 2007-03-29 08848, 2007

      • SnadB0y_
        like summer of 69, and its my life

        Three is a very low number of dimensions for something as complex as music.
      • 2007-03-29 08819, 2007

      • SnadB0y_
        so when they get a new music they put it in a cluster
      • 2007-03-29 08843, 2007

      • SnadB0y_
        or see if it belongs to any if it does .. they try to predict the commercial success of that score
