The Moment

finite

This is a sonification composed and turned into something musical, with the help of scientist Mark Temple’s musician friends.

Coronavirus Spike Protein Musification

the concept for this work is to take two abstract rhythmic sections both panned hard left & right each with their own rhythm and tones but together, when combined creating something "other"

sounds are effected drumracks in ableton on the left with field recordings of me bashing stuff in the garden on the right

Some randomized autopan is applied to give the pieces movement in the mix

disquiet0549 - Sideleines Pinball
I created several guitar tracks using an Epiphone Les Paul Junior chained into a Zoom Bass Pedal B1 using the A8 patch, chained to a room 506II Bass Pedal using the A4 patch, fed into a Mac Pro into GarageBand. First track using the Cascade Experimental Guitar patch with a TC Electric AEON String Sustainer. Second track using the Echo Studio, Track 3 again using the Cascade, hard-panned left, 4th track Cascade hard-panned right, 5th track using Condensator hard-panned left, 6th track using GarageBand keyboard Reversal of Fortune hard-panned right, 7th track using Star Arp synth layer hard-panned left, 8th track using Enchanted Soundscape hard-panned right. It was great fun creating this. I attempted to follow the guide notes to create a stereo soundscape and try for the effect of being inside an ethereal pinball machine. I hope you enjoy the ride!

Disquiet0549 Sidelines Pinball

This track was inspired by the Disquiet Junto Project 0554 (details see below): Create a drone based on the currently played accord of the piece “Organ²/ASLSP” by John Cage, being performed in Halberstadt.
I composed the drone mainly with choir and strings, singing and playing the 6 notes of the chord throughout the track. All sounds were treated extensivly with different varying effects. But I also wanted the original sounds to shine through.

In the follow-up track https://soundcloud.com/rabmusiclab/un-drone-se-desintegre this drone looses its drone-quality and disintegrates in its clearly recognizable sound-elements.

Un Drone Eclectique (Disquiet0554)

Disquiet Junto Project 0555: A Simple Timer
The Assignment: Simplify by a factor of 5.

I tried different DAWs and Synths to get a nice sound and ended with Live, Stepic and Aalto (Beat Edition). The track consists of 5 tracks, all tracks are automated with 5/10/15 step sequences. Aalto does not offer triangle, but I used sine, square and saw. Some tracks change their wave form by modulation and/or automation. I allowed all 5 sequencers only to select from 5 notes (plus octaves), from which one note had to be random. The drums are very deep squarewaves with very short decays, which made noise (looking at the exported waveform this may have been a betrayal to the assignment). No effects or filters have been used but some EQ on the drums, modulated and automated panning in general and some mastering at the end. The lenght is 555 seconds (5m55s felt wrong). I think I failed on 'minimalism', on the other hand it's 9+ minutes with only five sequences which do not bore me, so I think it passes as minimal ambient. As always, it was a fun challenge!

555TRIG2TH8 [disquiet0555]

For me the image suggest stains on a table cloth, sweaty wine glasses and bottles...
I started recording a beautiful plastic bottle I had around, then added some simple drums (I can't drum more that 2 things at once, so here it's bass drum and hi hat)
The added some wine glasses (rubbed) and chamber crystal bowls (hit w/mallets) , some of my favourite samples.
The bass it's a freebie I recently found and wanted to test, just plain 808 bass sound in one octave. very nice (808 BM4 Lite)

for this project:

"Disquiet Junto Project 0557: Condensation Is a Form of Change
The Assignment: Interpret a graphic score that depicts four phases.

A combined play on a Brian Eno phrase and a John Cage visual motif is pretty much foundational Disquiet Junto territory. This week, interpret this image as a graphic score..."

Bottles And Glasses (disquiet0557)

Podcast Editor Kharl Reynado (MPP ’23) spoke with Amy Antioho, the widow of Peter Antioho, an Army Officer who passed away after exposure to burn pits during his military service, and their VA benefits attorney, Cindy Johnson, Deputy Director of the Connecticut Veterans Legal Center (CVLC), about what the PACT Act is and what it means for veterans and their families. Amy walks listeners through her nearly year-long experience applying for initial disability benefits for Peter after he was diagnosed with brain cancer. After multiple denials and stacks of VA forms and medical papers, she reached out to Cindy at the CVLC for help. Cindy discusses the challenges veterans can face when they submit a VA disability benefit claim and the features in the PACT Act that hope to ease those burdens for veterans exposed to toxics during their military service.
