synthruary 2022 01 - Minimalism

This is a piece that I recorded by triple-tracking myself playing an FM synthesis patch (https://github.com/jimkang/pd-playground/commit/e12f5e40f3b795cd4a76f3da66dcde7d7484f907 the "twist" being that it has an extra cosine applied to the modulated signal) written in Pure Data.

The prompt for this day is "minimalism", so there is only one chord here that is modulated throughout the piece.

Synthruary 2 - arpeggiators

// to generate a song like this one, evaluate this multiple times. Then concatenate the recordings with tasteful amounts of space between then.

var origin = 1028;
var root = [origin, 100, 200]*[1,4,8,0.25,0.5,2/3,6];
var selections = (1..6);
var cps =  1/128;
var notes = (root/selections);
var seq = 2.pow((-4..4));
var curr = 0;
var range = 1;
var walk = {|p, s|
	p ++ (s * (3/2).pow(curr));
};

var def = SynthDef.new(\sin, {arg freq;
	Out.ar(0, PulseDPW.ar(freq)!2);
});

128.do {|x|
	curr = curr + ((0 - range)..range).choose;
	notes = walk.value(notes, seq*root);
};

Pbind(\instrument, def, \freq, Pseq((notes/4) * seq,inf), \dur, cps).play;
s.record;
)

Synthruary 10 - Silence

I generated this piece by writing this script https://github.com/jimkang/midimod/blob/main/tools/micromodes.js then running it through an amp simulator. Back on the Synthruary train!
