‘Building Iteration 9’ - Thomas Park

Thomas Park, also know under the name Mystified, among other acts,
experimented with various means of live composition and music generation:

“In terms of generative music, my best example might be “All Gen Radio”, which is a free radio stream that shifts between many possible types of generative, iterative music. To be heard, you may have to Unlock “AutoPlay”, or add a permission or two on your browser:

www.thomasparksolutions5.com

My concept of generative music is, I feel, friendly to artists as it uses their sounds as basis for loops, which are then constructed and reconstructed by means of Python code and some randomness. So, their work is preserved, in that it may fade in or out, but it won’t be pitch shifted, flanged, or otherwise tampered with.

The plan for the B\U\I\L\D\I\N\G project is to:
1. Use a code to transform the collective body of sounds from this project into loops of various lengths, some very short, some medium in length, and some longer.

2. I then would like to use a second code to combine these loops in various ways, using some randomness.

I have had some exciting results from work like this-- one would be the “Mahorka Iterations”, which I did with selected tracks from the Mahorka Netlabel:

All participants of the B\U\I\L\D\I\N\G project are informed about Thomas Parks plans, and all have given permission to him for the use of their sound material for this purpose.

Open Call Sound project

You are invited to participate in a collective sound work.

This is the plan:

1) Each participant can contribute by creating one layer.

2) Each new layer has to correspond perfectly with the allready uploaded layers.

3) Each layer has to represent an aspect of an architectual construction - a building that will be slowly brought to life during this project.
An aspect can be: Concrete material \ Atmosphere \ Space\ Size \ Meaning \ Light \ Context \ History \ Sounds inside the building \ Abstraction \ Proportions \ Destruction \ Construction \ Movements \ etc.

4) Please keep it as minimal and elemental as possible – please send a layer that has an open quality – that gives space for others to participate. Just one type of sound that suggests possibilities.

5) Each contributions has to be new. No existing or found material is allowed.

6) Please send a layer in WAV format of any length up to 5 minutes to: rawforms at xs4all point nl
it will be uploaded here on Bandcamp
leshorriblestravailleurs.bandcamp.com/album/b-u-i-l-d-i-n-g

7) Only facebook & instagram connections (and people that i invite) can participate.

8) Second Stage:
After the first deadline of 12 september 2019 the participants are invited to compose a work by organising the layers, or a selection of them.

All layers have to remain in their original form – so no further treatment is possible, except for length, pan and volume.

But it is allowed to add one new unexpected and definitive layer.

9 ) This project is organised by r\a\w f\o\r\m\s and Sound & City Project.
The organisors decide on the admission and rejection of the layers and composisions.

10) This is a non-commercial project. The contributions remain the property of the respective participants.
