-Interesting for sound-generation can also be Praat: http://www.fon.hum.uva.nl/praat/

Another interesting project which uses very esoteric scientific crapola is the Spectroscopic Toolkit, by [part-time Schreck Ensemble collaborator, if I remember correct?] Pieter Suurmond:

Pieter is intested in the atomic data of primary elements, particularly metals, and has evolved an incredibly complex microtonal and granular synthesis system around this data. Probably more interesting to read about than to play with, however---each track takes several days to render!!!!
