extensibility through programming renders it merely a device for media

consumption \citep{kay2019}.

Although programming environments as tools for music production are not
|
||||
widely used, the UGen concept serves as a premise for today's popular
|
||||
music production software and infrastructure, such as audio plugin
|
||||
formats for DAW softwares and WebAudio. It is known that the concept of
|
||||
Unit Generators emerged either simultaneously with or even slightly
|
||||
before modular synthesizers \citep[p.20]{park_interview_2009}. However,
|
||||
UGen-based languages have actively incorporated metaphors from modular
|
||||
synthesizers for their user interfaces, as Vercoe noted that the
|
||||
distinction between ``ar'' (audio-rate) and ``kr'' (control-rate)
|
||||
processing introduced in MUSIC 11 is said to have been inspired by
|
||||
Buchla's distinction in plug types
|
||||
\citep[1:01:38--1:04:04]{vercoe_barry_2012}.
|
||||
|
||||
However, adopting visual metaphors comes with the limitation that it
|
||||
constrains the complexity of representation to what is visually
|
||||
conceivable. In languages with visual patching interfaces like Max and
|
||||
Pure Data, meta-operations on UGens are often restricted to simple
|
||||
tasks, such as parallel duplication. Consequently, even users of Max or
|
||||
Pure Data may not necessarily be engaging in forms of expressions that
|
||||
are only possible with computers. Instead, many might simply be using
|
||||
these tools as the most convenient software equivalents of modular
|
||||
synthesizers.
|
||||
Musicians have attempted to resist the consumeristic use of those tools through appropriation and exploitation \citep{kelly_cracked_2009}. However, just as circuit bending has been narrowed down to its potential by a literal black box - one big closed IC of aggregated functions \citep[p225]{inglizian_beyond_2020}, and glitching has been recovered from methodology to a superficial auditory style \citep{casconeErrormancyGlitchDivination2011}, capitalism-based technology expands in a direction that does not permit users to misuse. Under these circumstances, designing a new programming language does not merely provide musicians with the means to create new music, but is itself contextualized as a musicking practice following hacking, an active reconstruction of the technological infrastructure that is allowed to be hacked.
