Disquiet Junto 0595 Filter Progression

 

The Disquiet Junto this week asks participants to modulate a tone or field recording using only filter frequency and resonance.

Earlier today I was walking past the ricegrowers facility that seems to make dog food and remembered recording it for the Junto proposed by Australian Kate Carr, number 0218.

And earlier his week I was remembering Junto 0186, which used Morse code. 

For that I recall spell my name using the kick drum and I went for a similar idea here, but it's more of a high-hat part.

I was remembering Morse code his as it was a topic being presented to a school group visiting the Museum where I work.

Martin Amis on anxiety

Use any anxiety you have about your writing — or your life — as fuel. Ambition and anxiety: that’s the writer’s life.

naviarhaiku490 – The cold forest flaunts

 

When Naviar Records shared the haiku this week, I thought of the wind rushing between the trees in my front yard.

It's not really a forest but Australian trees don't really grow that way.

I don't know what a wood anemone looks like, since apparently they don't grow on my continent, but I thought it might sound like wind organs.

Steve Jobs on greatness

“If you’re going to make something, it doesn’t take any more energy—and rarely does it take more money—to make it really great. All it takes is a little more time. Not that much more. And a willingness to do so, a willingness to persevere until it’s really great.”

Disquiet Junto 0593 The Charm

The Disquiet Junto project this builds on previous weeks as we form trios.

I joined a couple of tracks using my Korg Volca FM synth driven with MIDI from Ableton Live.

Unfortunately my computer browsers are too old to access the forum where the Junto community gather, so I'll try to add these videos when I can and draw attention of the other musicians.

The track below also uses a 909-style drum machine in Live.

Disquiet Junto 0592 Better Than One

 

The Junto this week asks participants to join a trio.

And we also get to respond to more than one trio, so I recorded two tracks.
