I hate being a doof, but how are people posting so that you see the soundcloud player and a hyper link? I’ve tried embed coding, etc. No luck…

Any guidance?

Thanks,

I think you also have to leave space (ENTER) before and after the link line to turn it into a player…

Cheers, I’ve a couple of other soundtracks for “silent” movies. One was for Metropolis, which has sadly since returned to copyright.

It’s good to be prompted to look for ways to mash one’s own material though. I love finding pieces that go together.

A good mashup is more than the sum of its parts.

I haven’t totally disappeared…

Played some chords, to an odd rhythm in 5. Then recorded street noise, and layered it 5 times. Chopped the noise, then chopped the chords. Two very dissimilar things, together on a DAWsecting table.

I really how the very very different layers fit together very nicely without directly meshing. The effect on me was like a place that was unidentifiable, yet familiar. Excellent!

That was perfectly surreal, and absolutely beautiful.

Welcome to llllllll - If that was your first Junto, you should get the newcomer award, which would be, uhm… a cassette tape, 45 random numbers, and the beer of your choice. Yeah, that’s it…

when i was 2 i made up the word antibanner for umbrella. i class this as my most creative achievement so far.

i thought of the sound of an antibanner opening as a cello-french horn blooming with slow attack. represented this in iris2, low quality tempo change in audacity

opened this in 2 instances of vlc, had them playing at different points and at slightly different speeds. gradually they’re stitched into the same time frame. further sewing done in audacity with reverb at +5 semitones.

I have a long-running photo project I have been doing, where I try to photograph single words from signs out of context (https://www.flickr.com/photos/ikjoyce/albums/72157630476790604), so I decided that for this junto it would be ideal to write a surrealist poem using the images I have taken so far. Having written the poem, I then created sounds by importing the images into photosounder, and then arranging them in the order of the poem, along with a random photograph of a seemingly judgemental pigeon that I took, just to add another element of surreal juxtaposition. To add some interest, I panned the original hard left and created a modulated delayed copy to the right. It should be possible to view the left channel in an FFT tool, and see the original images to some extent.
The poem reads:

Red lines,
green pen.
Operate inter-woodland bike
(pigeon)
Ping and ding,
square King,
born shy.
Cake.
Try me.

First off, @sevenism, I love the word-creation “Antibanner”. That’s awesome.

NOTE - This piece is best with headphones!!

After reading the email prompt for this week’s Junto on Thursday, I woke up the next morning thinking about the project, as both my alarm and my partner’s alarm went off at the same time - both from an iPhone app called “SleepBot”. These two pieces of music are not designed to co-exist. Her’s, titled “Parisian Dream” is a soft acoustic guitar piece. Mine, the default, “Morning Dew”, is a little more uptempo, more fully orchestrated. Our phones play a loop of ocean waves at night to help mask city sounds (my partner’s a light sleeper) which are interrupted, rather abruptly, every morning by this music. I usually awake with the ocean sounds turning off before my alarm music even starts playing…

So, for this week, I mocked up our sleeping arrangement, with my phone to the right of my head, close, on a stack of books and her’s off to my left, on her side of the bed. I used my Roland CS-10EM binaural earphones to record my perspective, laying in bed listening to these two pieces intertwine. No effects, no additional sounds, just very light breathing, mingling ocean sounds, and two pieces of music that should never play together.

I haven’t seen his Hamlet yet! It was at a nearby rep theater a little while back but I missed it. And I will track down the Peter Brook one – basically anything that involves Paul Scofield speaking is a win for me :slight_smile:

Ah, a dissection of the dissection, this time virtually – raising the question of which makes the human more visible, new medical technologies or surrealistic free association…? Nice inclusion of umbrella in French for a bit more onomatopoeticism :slight_smile:

hi nettles – nice track! dense and detailed – the assertive drone reminds me of the times I’ve tried to drag .raw files into audacity, thinking it would generate a certain something, and instead it generated what it wanted, not what I had pre-decided for it :slight_smile: and/or also, when (back in the land of images) you enlarge some black and white text but you’re in RGB mode, and once you’ve zoomed in 1600%, you can see the riot of color, none of which is the anticipated smoothness of grey…

beautiful, and troubling :slight_smile: inspired me to seek out a link to Einstein and Freud’s correspondence about human psychology, and war.
