Today any information is processed in chains of automated steps, mostly for providing handy services. Do we know more now? Do we understand each other now more than ever?

The Assignment:
Select a piece of software, preferably one you use regularly, and misuse it in the service of recording a piece of music.

Chains in this contribution:
1. Copy the assignment to Pages
2. Have it automatically translated in different languages
3. Have it read automatically, recording the reading
4. Have the resulting sound file chopped up and put some fx…

A simple drone and I IV V progression, both from electric guitar, the latter part glitched thanks to a somewhat chaotic LFO, the former frozen from a single opening chord, the combination done live in VCV Rack over lunch. Very simple, a lot of fun.

Last week I had a quick visit to Wheal Lovelace, which is one of the many mine shafts on the edges of the "Wheal Maid valley" also known locally as "Cornish Mars" due to the colour of the arsenic tainted earth. This mine is just around the corner from Wheal Fortune and seems to partly share the same lodes according to the old charts. I found a mass of boxy crystallised pyrite, dragged up from the depths a few hundred years ago and expertly separated from the copper ore by the balmaidens who worked here.

It may be the case that the larger the crystallisation is the harder it is to find good semiconducting junctions though, at least in pyrite - as this seems less active than samples from elsewhere. 

Here I used two samples from the same rock on the squarewave fm and sawtooth generator, and tried out a new mixer circuit on the breadboard I've been slowly working on.

instruction sheet for the proper use of dimension n music – an accurate circumscription of effects and fiction:

you’re now leaving the sober sector. please ensure to be alone during the opening procedure of the data container. lock the door in case of strong neighbour infestion, install bear traps and spring guns. put under a waterproof, scratchproof and biteproof matting to reduce personnel or property damage. read-out the data container by a capable data/acoustic converting device and turn volume up to maximum. don’t hold back! no canting humility! it could be your last one! do not hesitate, if any resonances of your environment occurred. connect loose furniture parts via unsolvable methods like glueing, brazing, riveting or welding. thereby the resonance frequency should sink underneath the hearable spectrum to infra sonic range. use massive doses of psychopharmaca, if panic attacks do appear. infrasonic is deadly in less cases. cardiac arrhythmia is not only harmless, but welcome. you’ve got a right to clench. don’t care for leaking body fluids - it's not a reason to be ashamed - everything is excusable! cancel all your dates. this one is only for you. an optimal sound result can only be achieved by the high performance bass speaker ‚berta droelf‘.
it's made up of a corner bathtub body, a 12 hundredweight heavy duty industrial magnet and a 20 squarefeet membrane, made of finest goat leather.
attention! dimension n can bear traces of bach and peanuts, cleans hardest clichee dirt, is toxic to reproduction and might cause allergies to cheap techno.
