You could write a plugin Csound opcode to parse the image file directly, or to parse a custom data file that your GIMP plugin would write.

Subject[Csnd] Re: Re: Poor man's MetaSynth (was: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: [ot] - Old Moog 900 Series Demo)
The first idea makes sense, now that I think of it, but it would mean 
throwing away two evenings of studying the gimp documentation and coding 
a proof of concept (which is ready btw). :-)

The second makes sense too. But isn't the csound score already a custom 
data file? I mean is there something I can't do with it that would be 
better addressed by an instrument opcode?

My code so far output a score with a line for each pixel, in this format:

i (pixel x coord)  (pixel y coordinate, 
scaled 0.0 to 1.0) intensity(r/3+g/3+b/3) redvalue greenvalue bluevalue.

This is all the information contained in the image.

In the orchestra I can write the instrument to use the y coordinate as 
the frequency (linearly), so if I write my instrument like this:

        instr 1
xtratim .02
kenv linseg 0, .01, 1, p3-.01, 1, .01, 0
aout oscil kenv, p4*20000.0, 1 ;where f1 is a one period sinusoid table
outs aout*p5, aout*p5
    endin

it is more or less like one would do with pvadd and a pvoc file. Am I 
wrong? But I can use the data in any other way.

Instead, If I want to map the height of the image to a scale of notes I 
can do something like this:

istartingnote=36
ioctaves = 3
aout oscil kenv, cpsmidinn(p4*ioctaves*12+istartingnote*12), 1


What do you (all) think?

To Adam and peiman,

I forgot to add that in an image you have 2 more dimensions (3 with 
alpha) than a FFT analysis. I can use this extra information to compose 
with more parameters available.

Ciao,
