===Audio sculpture===

If you have a visual environment whose contents can translate directly into the audio domain in some way, this is one way of doing audio sculpture. Unlike the quantized grids of piano rolls, there usually is no grid (or the grid is so fine as to be invisible). Iannis Xenakis developed an interface called [~~http~~://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UPIC UPIC], which recently inspired the program [http://www.highc.org HighC]. In three-dimensional space, [http://audiosculptures.com/ Andy Fillebrown] has done some work, as well as...well, gosh, he's surely not the only one!= =

===JI, temperament Lattices===

Tonalsoft's Tonescape makes it possible to compose with scales that are represented by two- or three-dimensional lattices. Tempering a comma out of a lattice turns it into a closed structure...
