I recorded myself typing on my works computer, transcribing a commentary of what i was doing and thinking at the time. I then fed this into Gleetchlab and routed and mangled the loop as well as running it through the TAMS physical modeller to make the resonant clangs.
On reflection it looks like I'm an angry typist, my keyboard sounds bruised.

Phenotype(disquiet0483)

8 April 2018

A long, cold and snowy winter is finally coming to an end. Just after dawn during a nocturnal unattended sound recording in an old forest. Black grouse is on the leks, and the voices of overflying Whooper swans can be heard. Chaffinches are migrating, and the local Willow tits have begun singing. Black and Great Spotted woodpeckers are drumming, but Ravens steal she show acoustically. Feels good to be alive.

Into the old-growth forest – spring advancing, woodpeckers and Raven come alive

We were at the fair, playing aunt and uncle to some of our friend's kids, and I brought my zoom recorder along. The best sample I got was of this grouchy turkey. I remember getting nipped by a turkey at the fair as a kid. Perhaps that's why this track ended up sounding so chaotic and evil. Bad turkeys.

Nip The Fingers

It's a song about looking out of the window:

Ich schaue aus dem Fenster
hinab auf uns'ren Platz;
da unten ist was los
und ich hab' meinen Spaß.

Ein Auto fährt vorbei,
der Hund vom Nachbarn bellt.
Ich nehm' mir noch ein Bier,
weil mir das so gefällt.

Ich schaue aus dem Fenster

Vučić igra razne uloge, ali ipak se izdvajaju dve glavne: u jednoj on je kao racionalna Elinor, a u drugoj kao emotivna Merijen, dve junakinje čuvenog romana Džejn Ostin Razum i osećajnost.

Asynchronic(disquiet0475)

Long time, no time. This piece is a response to the weekly Disquiet Junto Challenge. This time, the assignment was:

Record a piece of music in which some substantial portion is performed without looking.

Inspired by a recent musical tool (the XLNAudio XO), using my mouse and a map of drum samples, I randomly traveled different samples by moving my mouse over the map with my eyes closed. The sampled output of that "journey" ends when the mouse exited the map and no sounds were left. Using the first and only recording of that exploration, i added some spectral noise and a few strings and chords trying to convey the strange emotion that I encountered, listening to the samples.

disquiet0477 - travelling dark and binary waves

I sat in the dark with my eyes closed whilst stroking the touch plate of my Plinky synth with the output unmonitored. The audio, pitch and touch output were sent into a migraine inducing spaghetti nest of switches, dividers, envelopes and switch registers ttiggering randomly assigned voice outputs.
I ran the resulting audio file into delay and reverb to smooth out some of the jarring modulations and slowed the playback down a bit to make it less fidgety.
