Great lesson in how a soulless maching can evoke deep, soulful emotions.

Not sure of your opinion on God but this comes from somewhere not of this earth.

beautiful , emotion ...  i like the synth sound  prophet5 may be

Made by splashing water creating ripples in a pan whilst shining a bright light onto it and directly receiving the resulting audio frequency domain modulated reflected light some distance away with a photo sensor as sound.  The resulting raw audio was overdubbed 4 times at different points into the recording and various pan positions to create a pseudo-stereo effect. More sound from light recordings here:

Sound of Light Reflected From Water Ripples (Optical Sound Experiment)

Its all a bit hit and miss but its surprising what you can muster up with this thing..  this evening a sort of raspy bowed electric cello sound emerged which really came to life after putting it through a very short delay.  This is pure raw waveform generation from the analog optical waveform scanner - no dynamic filtering or even EQ has been used in this case.

A rough description of how my perceived analog recreation of Daphne's Optical Waveform Scanner works can be found in the playlist description.

Tracks on "Madma" are Richard D. James material probably from end 2000's to early 2010's. Tracks are mostly close to "Syro" or for 2 tracks, to "Computer Controlled Acoustic Instruments Pt2".

This is a 23 parts series compiling chronologically the extra material that Richard D. James put online on various pages.
