Definition
Algophony is Phonostack's framework for algorithmic sound generation, procedural audio, rule-based composition, and generative sonic systems.
Grammar
Rules that generate sound.
Algophony is less an app and more a language — a vocabulary of generators, modulators, and rules that produce sound without a human pressing record. Composition becomes specification.
Procedural
Sound from systems, not samples.
Procedural audio lets sound emerge from a model of the world. Wind through a parameter. Footsteps from a function. Whole environments from a few lines of intent.
Inside everything
The framework other tools speak in.
Studio, ORAM, MATERIA, and AKOÚŌ all touch Algophony — the shared grammar that lets a generative system describe a sound, a process, or a rule.
