Mike's project proposal
From CSWiki
Under construction -- more to follow as I think of it, comments welcome!
Main Idea
I'm intrigued by the idea of doing something with So + PLOrk (and possibly Matmos if it seems to make sense).
Possible features:
- PLOrk stations (of indefinite #?) divided into two groups?
- One group using 'unpitched' samples (selected by the PLOrkers?)
- The other group using pitched samples (selected by the PLOrkers?) or maybe synthesized sounds
- Groups relatively autonomous from each other, but interactive between the groups (interactive via GUI, or just sharp ears?)
- Live sampling of So
- One or both of the PLOrk groups' samples could be obtained from this.
- Is this a pain in the behind logistically?
- As suggested by our discussion in the first week of seminar, Dan's wacky metronome, and some features of Jascha's proposal:
- Flexibility of rhythm. A slightly hiccup-y, broken metronome to guide the PLOrkers?
- (Semi-)Independence of So from the PLOrk group's metronome? So more atmospheric, PLOrk more rhythmically active, for example, or vice-versa?
- I'm game for trying a collaborative project if any of this resonates with anyone.
- I imagine trying this in ChucK and doing something with Processing for the interface, but not sure yet.
