@Il-pleut Beware of 'academia.edu'. Whatever you do, don't register on their site, or you'll start getting all sorts of spam from them, with subjects like "Are you the author of blah-blah-blah?".

@Il-pleut damn, just when I thought I was "over" Stockhausen... that piece is great!

1953, on Elektronische studie 1 from Stockausen :
"In shaping the band by hand, he ( Stockausen) is adapting a technic known to optical sound in the film industry, by wich the the strenght of the audible signal varies directly in proportion to the area of tape passing the playback head. "

@oid , @everybody , Last advice, when you read a book, try to read 2 or 3, or 4 books speaking of the same subject. By another author, one book older, one more recent, one in another language or at least translated, one from another country.

Maybe the concepts of design are keys to create a music based on synthetic sounds.
Thinking with lines, shapes, numbers and colors helps navigate the never ending possibilities of a software like Pure data.
Harmony, melody and rythme can be insufficient when anything can be organised with such wide liberty.
Modes can appear everywhere, relations between harmonics and shapes can come out of places that used to be desertic.
Materials and dimensions, utility and necessity, drag creation in other directions.
