According to art historian Lawrence Alloway, Agnes Martin was one of the principal pioneers of the “Hard-Edge” 1950's painting movement. “Even where forms are not purely represented,” he wrote, “[Hard-Edge] abstract artists have tended toward a compilation of separable elements, treated as discrete entities. Forms are few and the surface immaculate … the whole picture becomes the unit. The result of this sparseness is that the spatial effect of figures on a field is avoided.”

Martin’s work evokes not only austere minimalism but also a cerebral airiness, perhaps gained from when Martin lived in New Mexico while attending university. Her work appears to vibrate off the canvas, the rigor of her craft subtly transformed into a sort of trembly dissonance. Even a simple line appears to breathe; a series of seemingly identical shapes reveal hidden nuances on close inspection.

For this piece written for fake violins, Suss Müsik interpreted Martin’s lovely 1961 work entitled Words (ink and graphic on paper, mounted on canvas) as a graphical score. The parallel lines are represented by sustained, repetitious phrases playing a single note. The triangles are conveyed through a simple 3-note counterpoint performed in consecutive sets of four, four, six, six, six, six, four and four. 

The piece is titled Words and was recorded live with one overdub for piano embellishment.

Disquiet Junto Project 0467: Toolbox Show & Tell. The Assignment: Share a tip for making music that you learned during the pandemic.

80% of my music started on a cheap android DAW app called "Caustic". The sound is not perfect, but I like the workflow. Anyway, since 1 year or so I try to switch to Ableton Live. Because of the lockdown I had a lot of time to flatten the learning curve with this DAW.

My tip is about "Follow Action", to bee seen in the Clip Editor. Follow Action allows a clip to trigger other clips by probability, in the screen example of the track cover there is "play again" with prob 1, "play any other" with prob 2. The clip is one of of many clips which only contains some note on a scale or a chord.

Normally I somehow reject pure generative music, although I place a lot of value on chance in my own. It always seemed dishonorable to me to let a software (that I didn't write myself) generate music and claim this music to be "mine".

However, with "Follow Action" I have the possibility to achieve an (in my opinion) honorable mix of probabilities and composition.

In this case, there are different tracks with different signatures and different Gongs in A minor. I even added "empty" clips to get some "silence" into it. The probabilty for the different tracks differs, one could for example use one track to establish sequencial clip triggers, to include motives that are bigger than inside a bar.

(And please consider "honorable" a way to big word here…)

halF stereO [disquiet0472] - 85 bpm

A short piano piece, open to collaborations for this disquiet project. I've not done anything too abstract so others can work with it quite quickly. There's a couple of bumps in the timing to get around. I'm really looking forward to seeing what other people do with this.

No. 34 In Am - disquiet0472

This adds to rhein's track, Safe (https://soundcloud.com/rheinmusic/safe-disquiet0472). And also takes a fairly safe approach. Some piano and later a sequenced Newfangled Audio Gravitate with a little tape effect and some echo and reverb.
