I like the playful impression and slight shifts of harmonics.

This was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0651: Why Compute?, which is based on a prompt by musician and Columbia University professor George E. Lewis. Lewis asks, “Why do we want our computers to improvise?”.

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0651 discussion thread on Lines:
My response to George E. Lewis's question "Why do we want our computers to improvise?" is - they can help create, influence, untangle and/or open up fresh neural pathways within our brains in discovering new approaches for our music compositions.

More than half the music I create usually involves some form of non-human generative or semi-generative improvisation to collaborate with. In the past, the collaborators have been various computer programs or hardware systems like the Monome Norns. Lately, it's been the modular synthesizer, though I did use my MacBook Pro here.

Three tracks were produced in Ableton Live with the help of a generative sequencer called TATAT by K-Devices. I improvised accompanying tracks using a K-Board MIDI keyboard. The synth plugins used were Slate + Ash Choreographs and Cycles, Fors Tela, and Sonic Beds 1.0 by Jogging House. Reverb effects were by Phonolyth Cascade.

即興 - Improvisation #1 [Disquiet0651]

Experimentation with Bitwig's FX Grid, processing a Harmony Bloom generated sequence with various randomisers, such as dice, sample and hold, and logical arithmetic based on several channels of source. The result was then further modified with Infiltrator 2, and Sampleson's Haptic Perc, and Xils-Lab La Palme.

Venturing into the blur_01

This track is an experimental little thing made for the 666th Disquiet Junto. It uses ‘the devil’s interval’ of chords made up from notes 6 semitones apart, a mix of 4/4 and 6/4 and, of course, it’s 66.6bpm. I played with effects to add to the gritty, disturbing sound.
