Spatial Machinations
It occurs to me that my reference to Algorave in the last blogpost might not be something people know about… so:
Algorave is made from “sounds wholly or predominantly characterised by the emission of a succession of repetitive conditionals“. These days just about all electronic music is made using software, but with artificial barriers between the people creating the software algorithms and the people making the music.
Here’s the inimitable Alex McLean explaining more:
Just come across this via a colleague. Lots of interesting things on at the Jean Golding Institute as part of their ‘data week‘, including live-coding/algorave!
