Advice on using Aggregate Devices for Mac OS X 10.4 (especially MacIntel machines). No longer required for the more recent versions of SC post 3.3
Mappings between number ranges
Example of a complex number fractal map with pattern code
Example of a cellular automata in SuperCollider
Neural Net class and help file
1 dimensional SOM (Self Organising Map) class and help file
Example of live data: FaceOSC computer vision based face tracking, which can send OSC messages to other applications; example code for SuperCollider to receive these messages

OSC messaging between PD and SuperCollider
PD patch
SC patch
OSC messaging between SuperCollider and PD-GEM
PD-GEM patch

Quartz Composer comes with the Developer tools on OS X only:
Demo within SC
SLUGens- LTI
Mixing and enveloping examples; also see my SC course and the SC help for more on envelopes
In SC itself you might want to explore these classes (and help files): Convolution, Convolution2, FOS, SOS, FFT. There is also a FilterTools Quark
Windowing functions for Fourier Transform
Online filter design
Java digital filter design applet
Another filter design widget example
nonstandardSCdemoes.rtf
SLUGens in the sc3-plugins(various nonstandard UGens)
Gendy is in the general SC distribution
Starting templates for sample-level sound synthesis:
SuperCollider using Signal and SoundFile classes
Processing using Ess extension sound library
java using javasound
Further signal generation examples

A list of Machine Listening plug-ins for SuperCollider to get you started
Some further SC based examples:
Dan Stowell's research work (see also the MCLD UGens in sc3-plugins, as well as built-in UGens like Onsets and SpecPcile mentioned in the list above)

Concatenative synthesis:
You can investigate the Concat UGen in my Machine Listening plugins via sc-plugins; but also, try out:
Corpus-based Processing for SuperCollider (Tom Stoll) Beta software but perhaps worth investigation
Soundspotter by Michael Casey, Pd and Max/MSP externals, plus C++ source code
