This is a 3-minute generative song I wrote in Ruby code to benchmark the synthesis performance of my code under different versions of Ruby.  Envelope generators and LFOs control the fading in and out of 4 different musical elements -- drums, fast bass, midbass pad, and overtone pad.  The different parts exercise different parts of my synthesis code.  Every sound in the song was synthesized from scratch, in realtime.

demo rendering of the first version of a playing-card-based algorithmic piece i've been working on
score as of 06/09/25:

[1]
to begin, one card is drawn. the value of the card is called the "seed value"
the seed value denotes how many hands of three card poker to play per section
it also determines the key using the circle of fifths

C  - 1/13
G  - 2
D  - 3
A  - 4
F  - 5
B  - 6
F# - 7
Db - 8
Ab - 9
Eb - 10
Bb - 11
F  - 12

[2]
the games of poker are then played. a note cluster is determined by the values of each card in a
played hand.

[3]
the pitch of the root note is a function of the key, the scale degree of which is determined
by the hand type* drawn as follows:
high card        - 1     
pair             - 2     
two pair         - 3     
three of a kind  - 4     
straight         - 5     
flush            - 6     
full house       - 7     
four of a kind   - 8     

[4]
the lowest value drawn in the player's hand acts as the root note of the cluster, with each
other card functioning as an offset (in semitones) of the root note.

for example:
seed: 3
5 5 9 10
<pair>

key: A
scale degree: <pair> => s2
cluster: B B D# E

[5]
the suit of the lowest card determines the duration of the note cluster
if there are multiple values of the same suit, the first drawn is used

hearts   - 1
diamonds - 1/2
clubs    - 1/4
spades   - 1/8

[6]
when the hands from a section are exhausted, a new seed is drawn and the process is repeated

when less cards remain than can be used for a hand, previously used cards (excluding the seed
and remaining cards) are shuffled and the deck is drawn to complete the hand and create
subsequent hands.

the piece ends when there are exactly zero cards remaining in the draw deck at any given point, including before a seed has finished

Sonic Fauna is a new app designed for experimental electronic music production & sound design through algorithmic and generative creation. With Sonic Fauna you can assemble digital instruments through a super intuitive U.I. and build custom configurations of sequencers, synthesizers, drum machines and effects. The goal of Sonic Fauna is to be both a highly compelling tool for creating interesting sound & music and to be the center of a community of enthusiasts that help guide the direction of the project. The app is currently in a private alpha and is planned to enter a public alpha in the coming months.

Here, I post mainly my experiments in algorithmic music with programming languages (check Radio Dulu on YouTube for the live coding). In reposts and likes, 4 main areas of interest: 1) Afro-tropical rhythms, afrobeat; 2) retro 80s pop; 3) electronic, retro videogame music, chiptunes; 4) Turkish psychedelic, Balkan folk. 💛
