Wiki Tikki Tavi (disquiet0560)

This track follows the suggestion of the Disquiet Junto Project 0560: 
Participate in the open contest to develop of a “sound logo” for Wikimedia (see https://soundlogo.wikimedia.org/).

I thought of noises and melodies which are symbols for the world and all there is to know about. This highly objective and personal miniature compositions that was created is not meant to be a promising candidate in the contest but my personal view of the world, summarised in 4 seconds.

Consequently the artwork was chosen from Wikimedia (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a8/Morris_Woodpecker_tapestry_detail.jpg)

The World In 4 Seconds (Disquiet0560)

Using Samplebrain I loaded seven clips of bird sounds from my own recordings with a short percussion track as the 'target'.

Associated photo from Gareth, at https://www.flickr.com/photos/trois-tetes/147640480/
part used as graphic with this soundcloud track, and rendered from photo to sound with Audacity.

The phrase "The Past is Breaking Through" synthesized using this service: http://imtranslator.net/translate-and-speak/

Since the source track is bass and rhythm-oriented I focused on higher-pitched or non-percussive sounds.  The Sears field recordings were made this weekend so they were on my mind when composing as a sound source. I can see seven tracks but hope the disparate "sounds" unify into one musical piece in the listeners' minds.

The Past Is Breaking Through (disquiet0173-overversion)

For the assignment detailed here: http://disquiet.com/2015/10/22/disquiet0199-spacecrickets/

All sounds are from Soundtransit at http://archive.turbulence.org/soundtransit/index.html
except one track of a field recording of cicadas I made in North Carolina this summer; and a second of a slowed-down piledriver from the building work around China Basin in San Francisco. The SoundTransit sounds are all reused under their Creative Commons license.

All sounds arranged and mixed in Garageband. 

My intent was to make the basic foley sound of a spaceship in space at the moment a character plays a cassette featuring the crickets/rain earth sounds. From the movie I expect lots of engine rumble and pipe sounds during their long journey. Matt Damon was creepy in that movie.

Submission for the Disquiet Junto assignment, here: http://disquiet.com/2015/11/12/disquiet0202-costoffreedom/

My plan was to maintain focus on the speaking, while rendering the text with a text-to-speech synthesizer and adding background sounds.

Created as part of the Disquiet Junto project  no. 204, structured around the audio provided at https://soundcloud.com/toaster-1/beacon-for-marissa

For this project I abandoned the set BPM of the garageband file and just drummed along with the ambient track, and then added in a few other sound elements.

Beacon - Toaster - Remix (Disquiet0204 - Underbeat)

For this Disquiet assignment, looking at the graphic notation, the main keyboard plays the three full notes and pause. The drum tattoos were an attempt to play the second notation hidden behind the first but I lost track. The third track slides and panning represent the spiral, telescoping edge of the wooden object behind the two sheets.

I used this wikipedia guide to determine what the fourth piece of notation was on that top sheet (a quarter note rest) -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_musical_symbols

Garageband instruments are: Titanic Waves synth; Event Horizon synth; "Heavy" drum kit.
