circuit bending a CS

circuit bending a CS

2011-03-30 by James Ulibarri

this is nothing I would do considering the gibberish unusable sounds that bending renders. (to my ears)
maybe if you're doing glitch or noisecore stuff i guess it would have it's place. but i have to hand it to this guy for the enormous nuts he displayed by doing this to a CS. kinda cool that he put the switches in the sides that remove.

i gotta give him props for coloring out of the lines and being different with the command station

for a tiny fraction of a second that seemed like a good idea: then i 
remembered that i know how to program sounds using the provided interface 
and using the provided controllers ;)

everything he's doing with his CS, i could do without drilling any holes.

ha! nice, dude.

me too.. :)

illformed.org/plugins/glitch/


anyone running a CS with MAX/MSP? that would be kinda sick

For algorithmic or generational stuff I run everything with Max/MSP, or Puredata depending on my mood/OS.
For live interaction, no.

oh wow. i want to learn pure data so bad for audio reactive visuals.

such as..

you're way ahead of the game than 97.9% of people on here..

They're essentially the same, and if your mind is already wired to understand the mechanics of programing subtractive, additive, and FM synthesis it's pretty easy to learn.
My own experience is that when you move to that kind of software, the control/command structures expand greatly, but nobody wants to tweak little bits of the math in the FFT section of the PD audio realm (at least I certainly don't).
So- my use is more on the control side, which means I need a very capable sound-renderer, which is why I'm on this list :)

Re visuals, PD isn't well suited for anything beyond "basics"- I've created art installations in Max/MSP and then redid them in PD because I thought it would be "cleaner", but it's not. Every kind of visual programming environment like that seems to suffer from a "difficulty of recursion problem", and Jitter (companion to Max/MSP is very capable) (but Mac-only)- by comparison the PD visual packages (Framestein and GEM) are immature.

What about Impromptu? As long as someone doesn't mind programming in Scheme...
