1Song1Week1Year - Week 22-Arc

YouTube via DJDJSMusic — May 28, 2010 — "This week I am working with polyrhythms. At least I think that is what I am doing I have one layer looping through 16 steps and another layer with just 14 steps, so I think this gives a 7/8 polyrhythm.
As usual when I read the description in Wikipedia it makes sense, but I don't know how to relate what I read to what i play. The same thing happened when I tried to figure what key I'm playing in :)
Anyway I like the sound I'm producing even if it is not a polyrhythm.

Spiral Galaxy - Abre Ojos

"The Spiral Galaxy project has been constructed using the images of Marek Dobiecki artist, teacher and astronomer. Dobiecki has built himself an observatory in his backyard in the Dandenong ranges where he tracks the night sky with his computer controlled f4.5 x 30cm Newtonian Telescope capturing galaxies, nebulae and star fields. The photographs are wonderfully fragile, textured, grayscale images of up to 2 hours exposure time revealing things we can barely see with the naked eye.

These photos were built into a series of audio reactive Quartz Composer animations and the sounds are inspired from space recordings and low frequency atmospheric sounds of the earth built on a eurorack modular synthesizer. The tracks are all recorded in one pass with no overdubs for sound or vision. The project is now completed and is sealed with the DVD release of Spiral Galaxy. The DVD has 3 tracks giving just over 66 minutes of sound and vision. The three tracks are:

* NGC1313 Spiral Galaxy in Reticulum
* NGC2835 Spiral Galaxy in Hydra
* NGC1313 Live at Electundra Festival 2009

Hydra and Reticulum are new videos while the live video was recorded back in November of last year at the Electundra Festival at Loop Bar. The DVD gives you all three tracks in full screen 16:9 DVD quality with full uncompressed audio to let the entire frequency range loose. As usual if you pop the DVD in your computer you’ll find 320khz MP3 versions of all the tracks for your fav audio device.

The DVD is a hand numbered limited edition of 50.

Cost is $15USD including postage to anywhere in the world via Paypal. For the first 20 orders I’m also including some limited edition postcards of the Geometers print series.

Tesla Coils - Arc Attack - Doctor Who Theme Song - Makers Faire 2010 - San Mateo - No. 1

YouTube via wshsbro — May 23, 2010 — "ArcAttack employs a unique DJ set up of their own creation to generate an 'electrifying' audio visual performance. The HVDJ pumps music through a PA system while two specially designed DRSSTC's (Dual-Resonant Solid State Tesla Coils) act as separate synchronized instruments. These high tech machines produce an electrical arc similar to a continuous lightning bolt and put out a crisply distorted square wave sound reminiscent of the early days of synthesizers. i filmed this video @ makers faire san mateo expo center.... web site: http://www.arcattack.com"

"Though this nice, hand held device uses a crystal for it's clock , and therefore shouldn't be hackable with out a custom built precision timer sub-circuit, it did, however, clock down nicely when two pins on its central IC chip were connected. The toy also has a USB port and can download a "name" from an online list. In this video it's set to 'Marco.'"

"This device was hacked by our good friend, Creme DeMentia. It is full of glitches, clock bends, and loops."

"This toy has a classic clock bend that glitches nicely on the low end. By jamming a screwdriver into the toy's mechanism you can cause the device to loop nicely."

Alvaro Lopez on drum programming - The DSP Project from Rupert Brown on Vimeo.

"Alvaro Lopez is an amazing drummer so I asked if he would be kind enough to talk to us about drum sequencing from a drummers perspective. He is working in Logic with Ultrabeat but the information can be applied to programming drums in any DAW or hardware drum machine.
