The second edition of SICP uses IEEE Scheme (basically R4RS Scheme) and pretty much every Scheme implementation supports R4RS -- s9fes from http://www.t3x.org/s9fes/ certainly supports it. It doesn't support rational or complex numbers but as I recall no example in SICP relies on those.

The author is creating music by *coding* in real time (and doing a great job!). He uses Impromptu, a Scheme programming environment, that supports realtime scheduling and low level sound synthesis. Given Scheme one can then build arbitrarily complex signal processing graphs. For some subset of people this sort of thing just might be a better introduction to programming than SICP. Basically anything that allows them to do fun things with programming and leaves them wanting more. BTW, you too can download impromptu on OS X and synthesise your own noize! ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread

Thanks :-) Although, I bet you can get better results in an easier way with VST. No tool is universal. Just in case, the video wouldn't load even with the latest version of Adobe Flash Player on Opera (some problem with Vimeo, presumably).
