This work proposes a contribute to the understanding of computer-based interactive music practices, in order to establish methodologies that can provide a more transparent, flexible and dynamic process in related compositional activity. This research is developed by examining and articulating complementary perspectives on the intersection of computer music with interaction. We begin by researching on models, materials, techniques and concepts that can contribute to this practice, attempting to understand the affordances and constraints that the computational medium provides. We then study how interaction has contributed to the contemporary context of interactive music practices by reshaping the relationship between the composer, the performer, the audience and the environment. In order to further scrutinize the potential of computer-based interactive music, we investigate new programming paradigms and how they can yield a more adequate context for artistic practices such as music. Complementing these explorations, we implement a computational framework, suggesting an alternate approach to interactive music practices.
