Set Theory Objects: Berliner Beitrage Zur Anglistik,, cartea 121


en Limba Engleză Paperback
Set Theory is both the most important and most difficult contribution to 20th century music analysis and composition of the last forty years. "Set Theory Objects" provides a comprehensive introduction to this theory and its practice, explaining the concepts and terminology used precisely and understandably. Computers are a valuable tool in set theoretic work. This book not only provides a survey of currently available software, it also describes the development of a new program for set theoretical applications. Particular attention is paid to the strategies followed in designing the program to make it a truly usable tool for musicians, regardless of their technical sophistication. Thus, this book is not only of interest to musicians, but can serve as a case study in human interface design.
