During 1987 I have developed a script language to code music for the Amiga.
The project was called Musicode. My idea was to create something similar to a “Basic” like programming language, which will focus in music. The Amiga was known by it’s ability to play polyphonic sound, based on 4 seperate tracks (which was a lot these days…). At that time I was involved in computers and music projects, such as music based on random numbers or representing digital artwork as music.
The demo disk contained the application itself, and a sample script with some music I have composed, as a demo for Yaacov Agam who was always (and still is) open minded to such ideas and ventures.

This screenshot was created by running Musicode on WinUAE (Windows Amiga Emulator) along with AROS alternative Amiga OS.
