Abstract
Many HTML 5 features enable you to build audio applications for web browsers, simplifying the distribution of these applications, and turning any computer, mobile, and portable device into a digital musical instrument. Developing such applications is not an easy task for layprogrammers or non-programmers and may require some effort by musicians and artists to encode audio applications based on HTML5 technologies and APIs. In order to simplify this task, this paper presents the Mosaicode, a Visual programming environment that enables the development of Digital Musical Instruments using the visual programming paradigm. Applications can be developed in the Mosaicode from diagrams – blocks, which encapsulate basic programming functions, and connections, to exchange information among the blocks. The Mosaicode, by having the functionality of generating, compiling and executing codes, can be used to quickly prototype musical instruments, and make it easy to use for beginners looking for learn programming and expert developers who need to optimize the construction of musical applications.
HTML 5的许多特性使您能够为web浏览器构建音频应用程序,从而简化了这些应用程序的分发,并将任何计算机、移动设备和便携式设备转变为数字乐器。对于非专业程序员或非程序员来说,开发这样的应用程序并不是一件容易的事情,可能需要音乐家和艺术家付出一些努力来基于HTML5技术和api对音频应用程序进行编码。为了简化这一任务,本文提出了Mosaicode,这是一个可视化编程环境,可以使用可视化编程范式开发数字乐器。应用程序可以在Mosaicode中从图块中开发出来,图块封装了基本的编程功能和连接,以便在块之间交换信息。该Mosaicode,通过具有生成,编译和执行代码的功能,可以用来快速原型乐器,并使其易于使用的初学者寻找学习编程和专家开发人员谁需要优化音乐应用程序的建设。
