Iannis Xenakis

In her article, A. Capanna says:
"On February 4th one of the most famous contemporary musicians - as celebrated as Pierre Boulez and Karlheinz Stockhausen - died. He was a musician, but above all he was a theorist and pure researcher who used mathematical thought as a basis for of his compositions. Because of this, his way of working more closely resembles that of a philosopher of science than that of an artist, whose instinctive creations are sometimes controlled only by aesthetical aims. ".

I tried to collect here some of the more interesting websites about Iannis Xenakis, as man, as composer, as enginner.
