About

A simple MIDI animation engine based on Lee Stemkoski's "Developing Graphics Frameworks with Python and OpenGL" video series. Inspired by Stephen Malinowski's (proprietary) software http://www.musanim.com/.

Excerpt from Friedrich Gernsheim's Op. 66 String Quartet (see https://imslp.org/wiki/String_Quartet_No.4,_Op.66_(Gernsheim,_Friedrich)) for score and shameless transcription self-plug)

Installation

Ensure python and pip are installed.

git clone https://github.com/kimhanm/openMAM.git && cd openMAM

# create virtual environment and activate
python3 -m venv .ve
source .ve/bin/activate

pip install --requirement requirements.txt

Usage

1. save midi file to ./midi/.
2. edit parameters in tests/music/03-multiple-parts.py
3. run with python -m tests.music.03-multiple-parts Default key bindings: w,a,s,d for movement, space/control for up/down, shift for sprint, h,j,k,l for turning, p for pause/unpause.

Roadmap

The goal is to be able to specify animation information inside musescore for easy editing and playback. Animation information such as color, geometry, etc could be added directly in musescore and exported via musicXML.

• Note Effects
• musicXML parser
