</blockquote><div><br>*One of the most exciting things to me is always to try to write a function that generates a a melody without explicitly defining a scale or resorting to too much randomness. Going all atonal is easy... getting boring after a short while is easy... it's a thin balance.<br>
<br>Bonus points for sounding like you are modulating between scales in a coherent way.<br><br>Bonus points for two matching functions or two melodies from a single one that work well together.<br></div></div><br>*Variation; generate evolving beats without using randomness.<br>
<br>Bonus points if somebody dances to them.<br><br>*Back to the old-school of ChucKing; crash ChucK in a new yet musically pleasing way.<br><br>Bonus points if your bug-report gets complimented for musical value (has anyone actually achieved this yet?)<br>
<br>*CPU efficient wave-shaping in new ways.<br><br>*Submit a piece to the "one line ChucK crazy" topic on the forum (one line, 80 characters max, crazy)<br><br>*ASCII-art that compiles and sounds good (just thought of this, never tried it myself)<br>
