Disquiet Junto Project 0226: Bucky Ball
Compose music for a fictional greatest-hits collection of the electronic music of R. Buckminster Fuller.

This is an early tape piece created by Fuller in the 1950s; a collage of electronic sounds and musique concrete from the period when he was influenced most by Cage and Stockhausen. There are moments that are reminiscent of Oram, Babbitt and Varese. 

The title “Pentagonal Transmigration” is a Fullerism referring to the movement along the edges of intersecting polygons. Specifically, the movement from one adjoining vertex to another. 

Analysis:
Fuller based the structure of the piece on the idea of interconnected polygons where sounds follow the movement between adjoining vertices. Each vertex is associated with a unique sound. Movement from one vertex to another causes a short segment of sound to be heard. 

[Created from excerpts of classic electronic music pieces of the era. Composers include: Cage, Stockhausen, Varese, Ussachevsky, Messiaen, Babbitt, Barron (Louise and Bebe), Maxfield, Oram and Xenakis. A total of 20 sounds are played in a Pure Data patch that follows the path of adjoining vertices in a 20-fullerene. This was done twice, the second time following a different path. Edited in Audacity.]

Pentagonal Transmigration [disquiet0226]

Bio

Rui Bonito started his journey through music in his early teenage years, studying Drums and musical theory.
Several genres were addressed since then, from Jazz to the realms of experimentation and underground genres.
Later he studied audiovisuals and worked has a sound engineer for TV broadcast and then recording and producing bands and making live sound engineering.
On Electronic and Electroacoustic music he found the creative freedom and experimental approach that led him to expand himself to composition and release his first album.
Currently composing music mainly with modular synthesizers, field recordings, tape machines, pedals and glitchy equipment, as well as his own voice among other instruments.

Last few copies remaining of my "Low Key" album on limited CD edition at: https://thirstyleavesmusic.bandcamp.com/album/low-key

You step into a mud puddle by mistake. Theres a noise. You step repeatedly in the mud puddle. Now it's music. Music because you do the sound deliberately, arrange and call it music.

PLEASE NOTE: Much of my work will sound better through speakers other than your typical computer speakers. I use a lot of very high and very low frequencies, which sometimes will not come through on smaller speakers. I also generally put up .aif files, but if you'd like a copy in .mp3 format, please send a message and I will be happy to provide one for you.

Ed Brunsden was kind and patient enough to interview me for  his blog Desert... Mountain... Dust...  - you can read it at https://desertmountaindust.blogspot.com.au/2017/02/tuonela-primitive-progressive.html

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. ~ Aldous Huxley

All good music resembles something. Good music stirs by its mysterious resemblance to the objects and feelings which motivated it. ~ Jean Cocteau

All music is beautiful. ~ Billy Strayhorn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've become addicted to drone. Again. I was the kid with his head on the piano, listening to the overtones die away, or pressing his ear to the steel hull of the ferry, enthralled by the sounds it created. I was the kid who formed wordless songs to accompany the sound of train wheels on a long journey, or hummed along with the fan on a hot day.

In the 60s I used to play my 45s on 16, or backwards, or by hand using razor blades as stylii.

I made cut-up tapes on a cheap cassette recorder in the 70s and experimented with reel-to-reel in the 80s. 

Thank you Subotnick, Lygeti, Coltrane, Jimi, Mimaroglu, Eno, Cluster, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Kraftwerk, Throbbing Gristle...

I am not a musician. I am a scavenger of sounds. I use the most basic software to process those sounds, stretching and filtering until something emerges that makes a joyful noise. Or not...

This will be my place for Naviar Haiku and Disquiet Junto entries.
