Sonnet was designed as a visual language for implementing real-time processes. Early design and development of behavioral components has largely focused on the domain of music programming. However, Sonnet's architecture is well suited to expressing many kinds of real-time activities. In particular, Sonnet is easily extended with new kinds of data types and behavioral components.We have developed a collection of visual output components for Sonnet, referred to collectively as Sonnet+Imager. Its design embodies aesthetically grounded representations of color, form, and rhythm, as well as dynamics for each. Moreover, its value is enhanced by a flexible, modular architecture that treats these graphic entities and operations as first-class objects.

“…It was originally developed as a tool for experimenting with audio to help the monitoring and debugging process [51 [6]. It was subsequently enhanced to better support event-driven real-time processing for use in interactive music performance [7]. Perhaps not surprisingly, those enhancements have strongly contributed to Sonnet's ability ~ to experiment with sonification.…”

We are using Sonnet, a visual programming language for developing distributed real-time applications, to enhance the user integace experience by allowing audio events to be associated with events that occur during the day-today operation of a computer. Designed originally for writing run-time actions for monitoring and debugging running programs using sound, Sonnet is uniquely suited to be un inteifiace ''glue" language to connect direrent subsystems together.Pan (position in a 2-D or 3- field)Although there has been a small community actively involved in studying specifically how to use audio in computing applications for several years [8] [9], the surface has only been scratched and the potential is enormous, particularly now that most new machines come with preinstalled sound cards.We distinguish between applications where audio is part of the end product (such as music tools and multimedia presentations containing audio) and applications where audio stimuli can be used to provide more information about some other activity. Although Sonnet can (and has) I Position and rate of change of position been used for the former, in this paper we are only interested in the latter.
