Overview

This week I accomplished a few tangental tasks, as well as a few critical ones.

• Developed a granular synthesis patch based on a self-recorded rich input signal
• Learned SuperCollider GUI framework to control granular synth
• Organized SuperCollider code for Rhodes FM synth
• Wrote JavaScript inside a Max for Live patch to perform a Markov analysis of a single clip
  • Creates a second-order Markov analysis for pitch and note duration
• Met with Prof. Chris Chafe to discuss trajectory
• Worked on content including variations that will be used as input to test markov generation system
  • Recorded a few sounds
  • Developed melodic variations
  • Developed a rhythmic variations in Ableton using recorded sounds

Next:

• Develop generative component
  • I think I will attempt to generate clips and place them in the proper spot in Ableton. If this doesn’t work, there will have to be a special clip in ableton that when played actually plays back the generated content.
