Not only was the sound system great, which brought out aspects of the 'music' that may be missed in earphone listening, but it felt like a truly new approach to symphonic music. The performance was coupled with four monitors which (somewhat) vaguely showed the patterns being used in the piece. I now also own the actual manufactured 1 bit symphony 'cd' and I must say it doesn't sound as grandiose as it did at the premiere but still great. Yes the idea of 1 bit sounding music isn't necessarily a new phenomenon but I thought it is well executed, especially if you consider a broader demographic of listeners' understanding of it.

So I?m working with the raw instructions that the machine executes, getting one step closer to the flow of electricity through the microchip." which is more what i'm talking about. the code itself may reveal some of this, but it tells me very little about what is going on in the mind of the programmer. perhaps i can induce some of it by looking at the assembly code, but this is way too much work for what i'd get out of it. and yet [from the same article]: TP There was a secret track on the first one!

I thought that work was brilliantly conceptional (though I dropped and cracked mine and can't easily get a replacement). The form factor is that of a CD case minus the CD. Rather than a CD being read and decoded in 16 bit glory by an digital to analog converter in a player, he's simply programmed a fixed voltage to generated by a microcontroller to go on and off out of 2 outputs connected to a stereo jack. He has digital sound in perhaps it's most minimal form: binary, no D to A converter, timbre only obtainable by pulse width changes and maybe his only less than total minimalist concession is he has 2 channels going so he can create stereo and counterpoint.I've not really listened to more than previews of his new 1-Bit Synphony work, again he's re-arranged similar hardware components and has had time to come up with new compositional ideas I presume. I can't preview it again right now, is he using rapid frequency changes this time? I know that's how early games achieved quasi chords via fast arpeggiation and special effects with rapid alternating changes in frequency. He does set up a dichotemy calling it a "Symphony" choosing minimal limitations and then attempting what's for all intents a classic maximal form, perhaps it's closer to 1-bit Chamber Music? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

What does "universal" mean? If you mean, everyone speaks it, then, no, there is no language that everyone speaks. But there are languages we can reasonably expect an intelligent human being to be able to learn if they work at it. For instance, I don't know sign language, but it's still universal in the fact that I COULD learn sign language. Humans are relatively similar physically and genetically, so that only makes sense. Music is universal in that sense. I didn't understand Beethoven's late sonatas when I was 18; you could say the music was a foreign language... BUT later in my life I learned the language and now they communicate a great deal to me. And if you have studied those late works in particular, you will understand, that music need not rely on words to express concepts; and that there can never be a 1-for-1 correspondence between a verbal commentary and what music say. Any verbal statement could at most be a kind of rough translation of what music is about, like the translation of a poem where the rhyme scheme and sound of the original have been discarded. If you need to PRIMARILY rely on words to explain art, you are more of an art critic than an artist. Actually, Boulez and especially Stockhausen already had this problem where the discourse surrounding their compositions began to overshadow the music. As if every new piece now has to announce some grand HUGE IDEA about the nature of sound and music. Very Hegelian view of art really, I can imagine the "Phenomology of Conceptual-Art:" "The absolute identity of the Artwork with itself is essentially not an immediate, but is achieved through the canceling of sensuous immediateness, and its exhibition as free and independent from the Sensuous. Thus it shows itself in conformity with its Concept, which gives reality to the Artwork." ~David From bakhtlist at gmail.com Tue Sep 7 22:50:54 2010 From: bakhtlist at gmail.com (Salman Bakht) Date: Tue, 7 Sep 2010 19:50:54 -0700 Subject: [microsound] 1 bit symphony In-Reply-To: References: <6F31644F-F1F3-4EBC-AADE-AD5D41D87F32@maxviel.it> Message-ID: hi, david. i'm a little lost regarding your comments. what are you referring to when you say: "For some time now, it has seemed that artists and musicians are more interested in talking about the concepts behind their work than actually working"? if you're referring to the 1-bit symphony work, i'm confused since it is a work of art that exists as a sonic work and a physical object and, as far as i can tell, as a result of the artist "working" on the piece. so, from the little i know about the work (mostly what has been said in this thread), i don't know what you're basing your statement on. and what does a work of art being "meta" have to do with having an interest in talking about your work? i think you mean meta in the sense of self-referential: art about art. there are works of that type that function without being talked about. and there are plenty of people that talk about (the concepts in) their work without their work being meta. personally, i think that artist should care more about art that the acts of talking about or working on art . . . (okay. i don't really think that. i don't think much about what artists should think. i was just throwing that out there as another possibility.) salman From js0000 at gmail.com Wed Sep 8 09:24:24 2010 From: js0000 at gmail.com (john saylor) Date: Wed, 8 Sep 2010 09:24:24 -0400 Subject: [microsound] 1 bit symphony In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: greetings On Tue, Sep 7, 2010 at 5:41 PM, David Powers wrote: > Why does everything have to be meta? nothing has to be meta. if you're not interested, just ignore it. one size does not fit all. > If you were really immersed in your work, there is no need for > language to explain your thought.

please see below- and thanks in advance for your help and patience! this is driving my nutty!! hi scott, thanks so much for getting back to me... it's quite a complicated (or rather lengthy) patch so i have been trying to simplify it so i can get the whole issue across... but briefly (or not so briefly) i am using messaging style (for pan as an example) like this from my routines: var pos1Spec, pos1=0; ~cc1 = CCResponder({|src, chan, num, val| pos1 = pos1Spec.map(val/127.0); }, nil, 0, 1); ~chord_rout1 = Routine({ var chordNotesArray = (#[ 34, 46, 53, 64]), nv2;nv2 = [~adsr,~adsr]; inf.do({|i| var index; index = 2.rand; s.sendBundle(0.02, ["/s_new", "OneDeepOnce", chordNode1ID=s.nextNodeID, 0, tone_grpID, \outDry, 0, \outWet,44, \i_freq, (4 + (chordNotesArray @@ i)).midicps, \pos, pos1] ,[\n_setn, chordNode1ID, \env, nv2[index].size]++nv2[index] ).yield; }); }); as well as a direct MIDIControl from inside my synth for other parameters: ( SynthDef("OneDeepOnce", { arg outDry=0, outWet=42, i_freq=500, pos=0, chord_allBuf=40000; var klank, harm, amp, ring, env2, env2_cntrl, wetMix, dryMix, offSet, noise, output, gate, tone, winde; harm = Control.names([\harm]).ir([2, 6, 8]); amp = Control.names([\amp]).ir([0.7, 0.6, 0.5]); ring = Control.names([\ring]).ir(Array.fill(3,6)); env2 = Env.newClear(10); env2_cntrl = Control.names([\env]).kr(env2.asArray); offSet = MIDIControl.kr(0, 1, \lin, lag: 0.02, channel:0, control:7, id:~port); output = MIDIControl.kr(0.1, 1, \lin, lag: 0.02, channel:0, control:8, id:~port); gate = MIDIControl.kr(0, 1, \lin, lag: 0.02, channel:0, control:9, id:~port); noise = {GrayNoise.ar(Crackle.ar(1.5, 0.01))}; klank = DynKlank.ar(`[harm,amp,ring], Decay.ar(noise, 1, 0.001).dup, i_freq, offSet, output); klank = Pan2.ar(klank,pos) * EnvGen.kr(env2_cntrl, gate, doneAction:2); Out.ar(outWet, klank*output); }).load(s); ) Now, this: gate = MIDIControl.kr(0, 1, \lin, lag: 0.02, channel:0, control:9, id:~port); is controlling ALL my synths (even one which doesn't have an env) ! this: output = MIDIControl.kr(0.1, 1, \lin, lag: 0.02, channel:0, control:8, id:~port); is controlling a couple of synths (it's not mapped to), but not all- ON CHANNEL 1 AND 8 I have been using cc.remove in this patch since i wrote it, but it isn't working! i just reset the pram... that hasn't helped either- i have even reinstalled SC... Do you think it might be my Node allocations? The synth that cuts off from the gate which doesn't have an env is in the first group and the two which are both responding to the the output change on CC1 are in the second and third respectively... tone_grp = s.sendMsg("/g_new", tone_grpID=s.nextNodeID, 0, 0); //head of node 0 popp_grp = s.sendMsg("/g_new", popp_grpID=s.nextNodeID, 3, tone_grpID); //after pieces_grpI drone_grp = s.sendMsg("/g_new", drone_grpID=s.nextNodeID, 3, popp_grpID); //afterpopp_grppieces_grpID the other thing is that i am triggering my routines with a CCresponder so i the synthdef with all the triggers assigned as so: s.sendMsg("/s_new", "trig2", trig2_ID=s.nextNodeID, 0, 0, \id, 100); s.sendMsg("/s_new", "trigger", trigger_ID=s.nextNodeID, 3, trig2_ID, \id, 120); here is the CCresponder: OSCresponder(s.addr, '/tr', {|time, responder, msg| switch(msg[2] , 120, {space_rout.next} , 4, {chord_rout1.next} , 5, {drone_rout.next} and the trigger sythdef: ( SynthDef("trigger", {|id=120| var midi, midi1, midi4, midi5; midi1 = MIDIControl.kr(0, 127, \lin, channel:0, control:1, id:~port); midi4 = MIDIControl.kr(0, 127, \lin, channel:0, control:4, id:~port); midi5 = MIDIControl.kr(0, 100, \lin, channel:0, control:5, id:~port); SendTrig.kr(HPZ1.kr(midi1), id); //space SendTrig.kr((midi4>50), 4);//drone SendTrig.kr((midi5>50), 5);//chord }).load(s); ) So there it is- if there is a culprit, it's gotta be here somewhere!!!

Nils Peters has been exploring the deeper meaning of ambimonitor more than me, I generally just use it for display and shuffling sources around manually, so he might be better than me at confirming if there is an issue.

Thought some of you might be interested and I'd appreciate opinions as it's my first crack at digital animation/vid processing. http://vimeo.com/14901626 (I retitled it because I wanted to make some aspects of its construction more explicit - it's called Formes Rouges on the comp).
