Subject[Csnd] New piece: Law Of Octaves
Hi all,

I've just put up another piece, called "Law Of Octaves", at 
http://mysterybear.net/article/28/law-of-octaves.  It's another take on 
an idea I've worked with previously in "Drift Dhikr" and "Drift Dhikr 
II", but with a richer, more complex sound, exploring the lines between 
stasis and change on the one hand, and consonance and dissonance on the 
other hand (not sure about the third hand).  I hope you enjoy it.  As 
always, the CSD is there, as well as MP3 and OGG renderings, all 
licensed under a Creative Commons "Attribution" license.

[Csnd] New piece: shape01
Hello, everyone,

I just listened to Dave Seidel’s “Law of Octaves” and was surprised at how similar my latest piece, shape01 sounds at the opening. The pieces diverge from there but you can’t help wondering how distant minds follow similar paths!

You can hear it at http://ruccas.org/wiki.pl/Lou_Cohen or go directly to

http://www.jolc.net/lcpublic/shape01html/

cheers! comments welcome.

Subject[Csnd] More on New piece: shape01
[Csnd]  More on New piece: shape01 I should have mentioned something about the technique I used for my new piece, shape01. Someone asked for the sco file and I realized that there is essentially no sco file. The score consists of a single “i” command that runs an instrument for 1 second. That instrument uses “event” to start up many other instances of other instruments.

All of the sound in the piece is generated from within the orchestra by the interaction of the “event” opcode and a set of tables that are used for all aspects of the composition, from wave forms to control signals that determine all parameters.

I’m curious if others have generated compositions in this way?

I’ve added the csd files and all included files to the link:

Hey, that's cool, Lou,  I don't think the similarity is too surprising, 
if you consider we were both following a process-oriented approach. 
Looking forward to studying the code -- I tend to have simple scores and 
somewhat more complicated orchestras as well, except when I'm using 
something like blue to generate score events.
