Process

I took the mando-matic mandolin, and ensured that all of the notes it played came from the pentatonic scale. I found a sample of some hand drums for my right channel.

I wanted to manipulate the mandolin further, so I added a lorenz attractor class, and mapped the pluck and the pluck position to the x and y coordinates of the attractor.

Since I had the class handy, I thought, well, I might as well use it as a conductor as well. Take a look at the code for further details.
