Yes, James made major contributions to early Robofest shows.  His work 
with sound is quite amazing and
world class.  He is an audio consultant and has used his software to 
provide analysis of major theaters - both
before construction, and "fixing" nasty acoustical problems, in existing 
buildings.

More later.  The Day job is all consuming at the moment.

>>> James McCartney (USA) is a composer and programmer and is the author of the audio synthesis and algorithmic composition programming environment named "SuperCollider". He studied computer science and electronic and computer music at the University of Texas at Austin and composes music for local theater, modern dance and music performances in Austin. He has done residencies at the Staatliches Institut fuer Musikforschung Berlin, Dartmouth, UC Santa Barbara, Wesleyan, and taught a night school on SuperCollider at UC Berkeley. He is a member of the Austin Robot group which explores robotics, cybernetics and the arts, and was a member of a mysterious sound and performance exploration group known as Liquid Mice. He also spent a time writing data analysis and observation planning tools for the NASA Hubble Space Telescope project, which is where he learnt his compiler writing chops.
