proposal: one DC-alike contest for redistributable forms of music generators!
there are now numerous people exploring this ground, i think a fete/contest would do a lot to bolster the medium and making it happen at kvr would both add impetus to development and help to keep kvr pertinent when the machines do take over
similar to the dc, submissions must be in some rudimentarily popular format (expect lots of PD), be variable (eg. output is unique based on a random seed) and have the intent of providing standalone "listening entertainment" in some scope, not eg. a compositional utility or interactive performance platform.
there are enough people doing this in some capacity to make an event interesting, i think a lot of people could use some encouragement to nail down the scope of such works for full automation, and a deadline would help people to implement *something* and experience the efficacy of doing so. i'd suggest a long, open enrollment and a good *four* months, real casual, for development. ima hafta do this micelf without compliance. but i think this would work real good for inspiring this community.

here's another "idea for kvr" no one else will post about -
what about a "developer hook-up" forum, for all the "work on my project" or "programmer wanted" threads. a discrete forum will allow facile browsing of "codevelopment opportunities" and leave the dsp forum free for talking about how to make things work.
i mean, the obvious function of such a thing is to promote functional interchange between authors and give spuds more opportunities to be postin on teh kvr.
