Haiku Generative Music Album by Giorgio Sancristoforo for Mac OS Released

Giorgio Sancristoforo's Haiku Generative Music Album is now available for download. You might remember the demos from previous posts here.

It's a fascinating concept. According to Giorgio Sancristoforo:

"Haiku is not an instrument, it’s a music album in the form of software.

Haiku is a work of generative music that builds its own sound from nothing each time you open it, and never plays the same way twice — a record that exists only while it is playing."

Be sure tee the Giorgio Sancristoforo website for his additional creations including dedicated experimental software synthesizers. You can also find posts featuring them via his label below.

Haiku, generative and interactive music album by 大雨-Ooame

"Haiku is a generative and interactive music album, it is fully interactive and on its own it can generate 10¹⁶ unique glitch music patterns which then evolve in unpredictable ways.
It's not a software intended for music production but rather an artwork to enjoy and interact with.
Soon available on my website as an app."

Glitch!

Todd Barton's Buchla Release "ausprobieren" Now Available

"This is a brief album of brief pieces. In literature I am drawn to short forms, especially those of Jorges Luis Borges and Italo Calvino. In poetry: haiku.

Here are thirteen short analog synthesizer explorations created over a three week period of experimenting with a small Buchla 200e Electric Music Box.

For those interested in the modules, here they are: 266e, 259e, 261e, 281e, 292e, 291e, 285e, 206e, 222e

All the vignettes are self-generating patches. All the etudes are layered, mixed and manipulated from various self-generating pieces using Logic Express and various echo, delay and reverb plug-ins, mainly SoundToys and 2C-Aether.
The Buchla 200e is an amazingly deep, complex, and sensitive instrument. These little experiments are only my personal glimpse into the Buchla universe.

To hear other uses and sonic revelations in the world of the Buchla 200e please search the internet for works by Richard Lainhart, Alessandro Cortini, Giorgio Sancristoforo, Charles Cohen, Don Hassler, Joe Pascarell, and of course Don and Ezra Buchla to name just a few.

Enjoy!
