  • The Magical Box [disquiet0250]
    Disquiet is 250 - thank you, Marc.
    My initials thoughts revolved around music boxes and mobiles, with a simple chord progression (I, VI, II, V, I in Do Major) to please a baby's lizard brain. Once I was happy with this, I sprinkled some randomness and reverb.

  • It's gonna rain [disquiet0249]
    A few weeks ago I saw an article describing the use of the Web Audio API to create systems music[0], and I thought it would be a good way to get reacquainted with SuperCollider (I have no interest in Web Audio). I had a recording that had been haunting me for a couple of years, and finally I knew this is where it belonged. So I started playing.
    As luck would have it, a couple weeks later the Disquiet Junto is tasked with celebrating Steve Reich's 80th birthday. After fiddling a bit more with my earlier prototype, I asked a friend for "some audio", and she sent me two perfect samples. I fed one to a granular synth, and used the other for the second part of the piece. The code is available as a gist[1].
    Samples: Pedro Figueiredo, picul metre
