QUINTET.NET 2005

I'm proud to announce the new 2005 version of Quintet.net, the
critically-acclaimed network-performance software.
Quintet.net, which was called by computer musician Ian Whalley a
highlight of the 2003 ICMC, now features an elegant brushed-metal
graphical user interface and many improvements under the hood, such as
network jitter compensation.

With its Viewer add-on, the application is a full-fledged multimedia
performance environment with real-time notation, microtonal playback
capabilities and a suite of authoring tools, the Composition
Development Kit.
Quintet.net is based on Max/MSP/Jitter and is available for free for
both the Macintosh OS X and Windows platforms.

The Hamburg Network Composers' Collective, founded in 2003, is a
permanent ensemble for the performance of compositions written or
transcribed for Quintet.net.

Quintet.net was featured in the 2004/05 issue on network music of the
Neue Zeitschrift für Musik (with CD-ROM) and in the current, February
2005 issue of Leonardo Journal.

More information is provided at http://www.quintet.net (the site was
just updated and features background information on several
international Quintet.net projects as well as network music performance
in general).

Enjoy!

Georg Hajdu
