Watch on YT for all the patching and knob fiddling.

Jam from scratch, as in: Everything is unpatched by the time I start the jam, no sequencers running or even connected to a shared clock, and all oscillators on init settings.

...and then I build the track during the 5 minutes of the jam from that 🥰

This was a very very fun challenge by the Hardware Jams FB group!

Industrial Jam from Scratch

Commissioned by the e-Luminate Festival, Cambridge
Created in partnership with the AHRC research project, ORDERED UNIVERSE, led by Prof. Giles Gasper (Durham University) and Dr Hannah Smithson (University of Oxford)

Exhibited at the e-Luminate Festival, Cambridge (UK), the Napa Lighted Art Festival, California (U.S.), Cheriton Light Festival (UK) and Boston Brilliance (UK)

This exterior work by Ross Ashton and sound artist Karen Monid is an abstract study of a single movement of lines. Like a piece of music, this visual ‘theme’ is explored through a series of variations that retains the original line movement, integrating and disrupting the architecture of the building. 
The audio intricately mirrors the pulses and lines of the movement in evolving rhythmic layers of sound, tightly integrated with the visual motion at all times. This leads to a hypnotic ‘dance’ effect, as the audio and the visual intertwine when viewed over any architecture at scale.
This creates a work that forms an intriguing view of projection, metamorphosis and perception.

“This piece is absolutely amazing! We could have stood and watched for hours” - Instagram (U.S.)
“Absolutely loved this projection on All Souls Church” - Instagram (UK)

Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith Biog
Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith is a classically trained American composer, producer and performer originally from the Pacific Northwest who now lives in Los Angeles. Drawing upon her formal training in composition and sound engineering from Berklee College of Music, she initially explored vocal performance, classical guitar and piano before her creative trajectory shifted when a neighbour lent her a Buchla 100 modular synthesizer. Her music combines the use of modular, analogue and rare synthesizers, orchestral textures and voice.

Her early self-released works, including Cows Will Eat the Weeds and Tides: Music for Meditation and Yoga (2014), were followed by Euclid (2015), her first official album with Western Vinyl, which combined structured songwriting with ambient exploration. This was succeeded by EARS (2016), which critics praised for its seamless layering of organic instrumentation and analogue synthesis to evoke feelings of awe and disorientation. Her 2017 release, The Kid, marked a conceptual leap, tracing stages of human development through richly textured, emotionally resonant compositions that bolstered her status among experimental music audiences.

Kaitlyn has performed alongside artists like Hot Chip, Glass Beams, RY X, Caribou and Four Tet, composed original works for Apple, BBC Orchestra, Adult Swim, MoMA, Red Bull and others, plus her song “Stratus” was also synced in the 2023 film Priscilla Motion Picture Soundtrack. She has also collaborated with longtime inspiration Suzanne Ciani and other artists like Emile Mosseri, while exploring multidisciplinary projects through her label, Touchtheplants. On her latest album, GUSH, Kaitlyn sets her sights on aesthetics, focusing on the heightened awareness of and presence in the world where every interaction, whether with people, objects or nature, has the potential to become a moment of connection and personification.
