hi!

followings are something
i've sent to my friend
to do the preparation for the studio jammin thing @ jul8th
it's micro-oriented

can somebody participate the jam with your orc'n'scos (or sound file)?

---- plans ----

(c) traditional
(p) gave up under anti-monopoly

but first of all
if you think the latters ain't interesting
you can just play around with weird sounds
&
if some does hits your interest
please come up with any idea (extended from mine)
and lets just try the
"what will this combination (of materials) be like?"
thangs
@ the studio

there are three things that i'm tackling to this summer

(still have to rush maintaining the browser intruments
based on the following structure)

(1) song2 / song1

song2 = overtones of 73.41619197935 * 2^(int n)
song1 = root-kind of thangs
that have 73.41619197935 * 2^(int n) as one of its overtones

am prepared with a bit of song2 materials
can you think about something based on song1?

song1 consists of these classes:

"Sa"= overtones of 73.41619197935
main method = play "Sa"+"Ri"+"Ga"+"Ma"+"Pa"+"Da"+"Ni" as you like

"Ri"(extends Sa)=overtones of 73.41619197935 * (16/15)^(int n)
"Ga"(extends Sa)=overtones of 73.41619197935 * (16/20)^(int n)
"Ma"(extends Sa)=overtones of 73.41619197935 * (16/22)^(int n)
"Pa"(extends Sa)=overtones of 73.41619197935 * (16/24)^(int n)
"Da"(extends Sa)=overtones of 73.41619197935 * (16/13)^(int n)
"Ni"(extends Sa)=overtones of 73.41619197935 * (16/14)^(int n)

(2) song2.c / song4

song2.c = overtones of 7/8 * 73.41619197935 * 2^(int n)
song4 = overtones of
(7/8 * 73.41619197935 * 2^(int n)) *
(16/17)^(int x>=0) * (16/13)^(int y>=0) * (16/21)^(int z>=0)

am prepared with a bit of song2.c materials
can you think about something based on song4?

(3) song5

"Sa"= overtones of 233.609 * 2^(int n)
main method = play "Sa"+"Ri"+"Ga"+"Ma"+"Pa"+"Da"+"Ni" as you like

"Ri"(extends Sa)=overtones of 233.609 * 2^(int n) * (16/18 or 16/22 or 16/17)
"Ga"(extends Sa)=overtones of 233.609 * 2^(int n) * (16/18 or 16/19 or 16/14)
"Pa"(extends Sa)=overtones of 233.609 * 2^(int n) * (16/18 or 1 or 16/24)
"Ni"(extends Sa)=overtones of 233.609 * 2^(int n) * (16/18 or 16/13 or 16/20)

## "or" is more "progression" oriented than "play at the same time" ##

i have plenty of browser instruments based on "Sa"
can you do something based on "Ri","Ga","Pa","Ni"

what do you think?

I can sense the idea of a recipe somewhere in the symmetry of these
hieroglyphics. My fear is it looks so standardized I don't even dare ask.

Poontaloon... I have to say I *completely* enjoyed your post, as I didn't
understand *one* single word of it. There's an awe in the unknown.

If you've actually made up this entire language as some kind of performance
art, I have to say it's amazing. Failing that, would you please do me the
honor of enlightenment... I imagine it can be done in five words or so.
What exactly are you talking about please.

Marc

Hi, Orphon (or are you Mark?)!!

things are in the process of becoming true
and i myself is still learning java
so weird aspect of what i have posted
may have a lot to do with my "not skilled enough"

but let me write about why i started a thing like this

i'm now interested in objective-aspect of composing micro-music
wanna say
"scale is dead , now comes object!"
in the near future

from that point
"structure of music = structure of program"
is what I'm aimed to

on the other hand
i'm jazzy
do not like just pushing the "start" button
and everybody turing into listeners on a sofa

looking for a way to
play micro-music interactively = interplay
i mean...improvising

traditional music @ india
(those raga & tahla things)
looks to me
like a good example of
objective-acoustic-micro-music
(that's why i stole those "sa ri ga ma..." words)

and (or but) what i'm doing now is

prepare a micro-browser-instrument (=flash-thang):
http://mybrowser.ismad.com

that will make none-(musically-)trained pc-users
jam @ broadband-cafes and @ their office

to prepare the materials 4 the instrument
doing an algo-comp thing
via java
that will result into spitting out csound-orc&sco-files

and if music turns to be
enjoyed like what i've wrote
it's not completed-mp3 but materials
that people will exchange via the net
(another way of using napster?)

taking that into account
am also thinking about
PublicDomain-ing the Copyright thangs:
http://i.am/sarigama

so..
working to make this whole system become something is
my COMPOSING

did this help?

thanx

Hi BUYO-BUYO-IGOR / muchos pantaloons,

Have you seen any of the stuff George Lewis does?
He's a professer here at UCSD, and mostly known as
a "new music" improviser on trombone.

But Lewis is also very interested in interactive
music software, and has written some cool programs.
I don't have any links handy, but try searching the
web... there's quite a bit of info on him out there.

Well, this is at least a place to start:
http://orpheus.ucsd.edu/dept.music/musicdept/lewis.html

(check out his huge discography! 90 CDs!)
