What is IanniX?

IanniX,
A graphical open source sequencer.


IanniX is a graphical open source sequencer, based on Iannis Xenakis works, for digital art. IanniX syncs via Open Sound Control (OSC) events and curves to your real-time environment.

Sequencer

IanniX can be used with a diversity of software and hardware tools

Real-time

IanniX can be modified and operated in real-time

Space & Time

IanniX’s graphical space spans several dimensions and time scales

Open Sound Control

The OSC protocol allows fast network communication

Open-source

IanniX is licensed under GPL 3, free and cross-platform

From Xenakis’ UPIC to IanniX

“I was very happy to discover IanniX. I think it is both a beautiful tribute to the hard work that my father has spent his entire life to put the computer in the service of musical and visual creation. And a very technical, alive and present success. Although, personally, I always feel a moment of sadness realizing that despite all the strength he had, he is definitely no longer there to share those moments and give his opinion… I honestly think he would have been very happy to discover this beautiful metamorphosis of the UPIC which was so dear to him and he would immediately goes into this new adventure.”
