Not far from where I live there are a couple of signs like this. I took an electronic sequence created in Pure Data and combined it with its duplicate played in reverse with slightly less volume, the whole with various adjustments and some added reverb and delay.

Two Way Traffic with Priority (disquiet0688)

I see this sign everyday on my walk to the bus stop and it immediately came to mind when thinking of street signs. I took the sign to mean sounds that come one after the other, with no overlap, and challenged myself to create a track that is completely monophonic.

To do this I used Renoise and limited my self to only one track, I used samples from various sources, some that I had recorded, others rendered from Vital. Overall I think the limitation lead me to create something very unique and forced me to think outside of the box when writing rhythms and melodies.

Disquiet Junto Project 0690: Knot Bad
The Assignment: Interpret wood grain as a graphic score.

Step 1: Find a piece of wood, the grain of which captures your imagination.

Step 2: Consider how the shapes of the grain might be interpreted as a graphically notated score. (If you are not familiar with the concept of a graphic score, read up.)

Step 3: Record a piece of music in which you interpret the grain of the wood you selected in Step 1 as a graphic score.

Created by DD in the morning of Friday  April 11th in Paris, Jazz ballad inspired on the lovely "First Song (for Ruth)  by Charlie Haden, following the instructions provided on this challenge:
https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0693-melody-sorted/

Step 1: Choose a familiar song for which you have access to the sheet music.

Step 2: Select a segment of the song, perhaps one round of the chorus and the verse — perhaps more, or less, after you finish reading these instructions.

Step 3: Write down all the notes (and their lengths) in the main melodic line.

Step 4: Alphabetize the notes, and also sort them by length, in ascending order, so an Ab goes before an A, and a quarter note goes before a whole note, and so forth. (You might also adjust for where the note falls relative to middle C, starting low and proceeding up.)

Step 5: Record results when all those notes are played in the sequence that was derived during Step 4.

11 samples created from looping short sections taken from a pre-existing piece entitled 'Narrative' [ https://soundcloud.com/xiiixxi/narrative ]. The volume of each continuously sounding loop is auto-faded in and out using a pair of linked oscillators in addition to being shaped to bring each to the front once at least once throughout the duration of the piece.
