Music is heard through a wall from the neighbouring room. Thoughts emerge and align to what is happening next door. Music arises matching to what is heard...

The track played behind the wall can be listened to directly here: https://soundcloud.com/rabmusiclab/dreamless-and-sublime

This track was inspired by the Disquiet Junto Project 0583:

Dreams float through Walls (Disquiet0583)

Using the method indicated, an original drone sequence of around 20 minutes, created in Pure Data, was reduced to its current length, which also resulted in some abrupt changes to pitch or timbre, especially in the second half..
The track was created with VLC using random or untimed fast-forward intervals & recorded with Audacity +Soundflower.
An interesting exercise.

Chop & Change (disquiet0585)

Disquiet Junto Project 0585: F9

The Assignment: Fast forward an old track to make a new one.

Step 1: Many media playback apps for laptops (among other devices) include the option to fast forward through a track manually. Some apps have settings that allow you to adjust the length of the gap that will be jumped. Find a tool that can do this. VLC (videolan.org/vlc 2) is recommended. In VLC you can jump forward in set lengths of time by repeatedly pressing (not holding, but repeatedly pressing) the right arrow on your keyboard.

Step 2: Try this process with a few of your own recordings: hitting the right arrow at a steady pace (as quickly as every split second, as slowly as every two or three seconds).

Step 3: Locate a track of your own where doing what is described in Step 2 yields a result you find pleasing.

Step 4: Record what the result of Step 3 sounds like for one of your pre-existing tracks. (This may be old hat, if you have used Loopback or similar software. You could also just record the output from your laptop’s speaker.)

Step 5: Use the result of Step 4 as the foundation for a new piece of music. You can add as little or as much as you would like to it.

Notes: (1) You may find you can simulate this effect. (2) You can loop the result of Step 4 if what it yields is too short.

Eight Important Steps When Your Track Is Done:

Step 1: Include “disquiet0585” (no spaces or quotation marks) in the name of your tracks.

Step 2: If your audio-hosting platform allows for tags, be sure to also include the project tag “disquiet0585” (no spaces or quotation marks). If you’re posting on SoundCloud in particular, this is essential to subsequent location of tracks for the creation of a project playlist.

Step 3: Upload your tracks. It is helpful but not essential that you use SoundCloud to host your tracks.

Step 4: Post your track in the following discussion thread at llllllll.co:

https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0585-f9/

Step 5: Annotate your track with a brief explanation of your approach and process.

Step 6: If posting on social media, please consider using the hashtag #DisquietJunto so fellow participants are more likely to locate your communication.

Step 7: Then listen to and comment on tracks uploaded by your fellow Disquiet Junto participants.

Step 8: Also join in the discussion on the Disquiet Junto Slack. Send your email address to marc@disquiet.com for Slack inclusion.

Note: Please post one track for this weekly Junto project. If you choose to post more than one, and do so on SoundCloud, please let me know which you’d like added to the playlist. Thanks.

Additional Details:

Length: The length is up to you. Just because it’s fast forwarded doesn’t mean it needs to be short.

Deadline: This project’s deadline is the end of the day Monday, March 20, 2023, at 11:59pm (that is, just before midnight) wherever you are. It was posted on Thursday, March 16, 2023.

Upload: When participating in this project, be sure to include a description of your process in planning, composing, and recording it. This description is an essential element of the communicative process inherent in the Disquiet Junto. Photos, video, and lists of equipment are always appreciated.

Download: It is always best to set your track as downloadable and allowing for attributed remixing (i.e., a Creative Commons license permitting non-commercial sharing with attribution, allowing for derivatives).

For context, when posting the track online, please be sure to include this following information:

Change About (disquiet0586)

This track was created by randomly fading in and out individually the instruments and recordings of the original track https://soundcloud.com/rabmusiclab/winter-slow-and-even-tempered. The created spaces enrich the track, give more emphasis to the remaining instruments - and a deeper meaning of its own to this composition.  As contradictory as this may seem...

The creation was inspired by the Disquiet Junto Project 0586 (details see below).

I owe my thanks to @user-957729823 (Ha Kéko) for providing the great field-recording https://soundcloud.com/user-957729823/snow-removal_2. An ambient version of this recording was created with PaulXStretch.
These tracks can be heard if hazard determines to fade them in...

Winter, slow and even-tempered, embracing Spaces (Disquiet0586)

i used each line of poetry from this week's naviar haiku ("travel home / even the air / has changed") to generate three separate morse code messages. each morse code message was then used to trigger its own instance of trackspacer, which ruptured either the sub, guitar or string channels of my naviar composition. in this way, my original track "even the air has changed" became "uneven, the air has changed."

I did a drone as I used to, and then I detuned it a little bit.

Detuned Drone [Disquiet0587]

a combination of electromagnetic recordings to generate the feedback for the assignment and some old field recordings of birds squabbling at local sheds, with occasional environmental noises and artifacts. 
both tracks had lots of noise i tried to use as texture
