Notes from the 'Wavlov'-CD : A rhytmic pattern is also a waveform as an entity. This can be proved by playing back the repeating pattern fast enough to produce a tone. It will become a sound with specific harmonic properties like any chord. So the range of audible frequencies for the human ear goes far lower than the present standard of 20 Herz. And leads more to the question: - How slow can a pattern be, before loosing the recognition of a repeat ? |
Not product, but process Not scores, but changes Not chords, but modulations Not scales, but frequencies Not instruments, but autophonics. Not entertainment, but experience. |
Notes from my tape book : In electronic music the pulse is a very underestimated form. The accent still lies on frequency and voltage, although pulses represent a very important matter in composition: Time Random music doesn't have to mean chaos. If it's not disturbed by pushing it to the tonal, or forced to stay random, it gives an amount of connections enough to form something. |
