“Perhaps it can be argued that such a definition would restrict the scope of the word ‘music’ too severely. The sounds of nature and those produced by other animals can have profound musical qualities. However, more severely and related to our discussion, such a definition would exclude any sound produced by mechanized processes as music, or in other words, the music made by machines (or computers).”

“In its final form, it differs from the scheduling algorithm of RTSKED primarily in its approach to data handling. In Max, objects are usually activated by passing messages to them from other objects. The mechanisms for ‘triggering’ an action and for passing data back and forth between objects are unified.”

“The lack of ‘intelligence’ in no way limits the expressivity of the visual language. Instead, expressivity is enhanced by concreteness (the opposite of abstraction), directness, and straightforwardness.
The scheduling algorithm of Max is exceedingly simple, although it took several years to develop.”
