I like to imagine they were attracted to the music.

Awesome job everyone! @dansimco that was fantastic by the beach! How the hell did you walk around in a t-shirt though?!

Maybe adrenaline, maybe caffeine. It was quite mild down there though. Well it seemed to me at the time.!

Also, here is my set from stream v2. Pre-dawn ritual from Western Australia :slight_smile:

Thanks everyone who made this possible in coordinating the stream, designing the overlay, the poster and to everyone who played and watched. It was really cool to be part of it.

I youtube’d up the video from mine. I think Twitch deletes them after a while?

edit: replacing with my highlight, which was trimmed a bit https://www.twitch.tv/videos/657791292

Twitch will keep it if you make it a “highlight”. (here’s mine)

Just ripped and cleaned up the audio of my stream the other day if anyone wants to revisit! I cleaned up the beginning and end a bit due to some issues on my end but I think it came out pretty well.

my video is here:
[ https://www.twitch.tv/videos/656496566 ]

(i didn’t trim it and don’t particularly want it to be preserved forever.)

i was asked about a technical run-down so here is something like that:

(most parameters are not chosen with any particular care, except with regards to timing of events, and total duration…)

electric viola feeds L/R inputs through different amplification chains. (L: dark and static, R: brighter, varied, starting quiet.)

supercollider runs on thinkpad, with 2x2 audio interface, alongisde softcut, JACK, OBS.

(supercollider code is here.)

things happen under program control:

  1. for 120 seconds, computer makes no sound. L input is polled and analyzed, each “note event” collecting amplitude, pitch, “clarity,” and spectral flatness measures. (this is an autocorrelation-based pitch tracker, where “clarity” is the normalized height of the autocorrelation peak.)

  2. the table of timestamped pitch/amp/clar/flat events is sorted by clarity. a sequence of simple oscillator voices begins to play the sorted pitches. each voice is three sinewaves at octaves; their balance, panning, amp, and duration also influenced by the captured “note event” characteristics. (this mapping is seriously ad-hoc.)

  3. 32 seconds of L/R audio is recorded, and the first few seconds begin to loop. loop amplitudes are modulated by feedback-sine LFOs, running at rates harmonically related to loop sizes.

other things occur due to manual code execution (i believe the kids call this “alive codings”):

  • a softcut process is engaged, with 2 voices in feedback, taking alternate L/R inputs

  • softcut rates are randomly modulated by low-order JI intervals

  • loop rate / timing / levels are adjusted, also by JI intervals

  • loops are sometimes overwritten

also, in the analog realm:

gain controls are adjusted. we follow accidental harmonic and rhyhmic traces, as perceived. our thoughts and hands slide and scrape. we encounter pain and lightness. drink coffee. the fern waves.

also, twitch tells me that i’ve been awarded a Bang Bang: Ruby - Cat Girl Permanent Skin Bundle. nice

Hi everyone!

I have downloaded all of the sets that I could find that was saved, but the collection is not complete. Should I still make a recap in the style of V1.0, even if it is not a complete collection? And is anyone not that keen on having their performance preserved forever(absolutely nothing wrong with that).

I have been thinking about V3.0, and I was hoping that I could make it happen in July, but the next 3-4 weeks have filled up with all sorts of vacation stuff etc. and the baby is starting daycare early August, so I’m thinking(unless anyone else wants to host) that we do V3.0 sometime mid/late August?

All the best.

This has disappeared from Twitch - have you somehow saved it, and would you mind sharing? Thank you.

edit: ah, just noticed “don’t particularly want it to be preserved forever”

Hello everyone!

@noiserock has announced that unfortunately he is dealing with some personal stuff which means he cannot host in awhile. I’ve taken it upon myself to host this month’s stream, which I’ve decided is going to happen on Saturday, August 22nd.

I’ve added a new page in the document for signups this month, here is another link to signing up again: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BVK0Pee-Syoh1aPyWNrVKqMFPC5QVTjRe4nsSUesIKM/edit?usp=sharing

There is a channel for suggesting themes in the Discord which has had three suggestions so far, enough to make a poll. I’m making this post into a poll for the themes that have been suggested so far:

  • Water
  • Hope
  • Connection

All the themes sound interesting albeit it is summer here and I often spent summers by the sea so topic was obvious to me. I added myself to the list (so the more shy people won’t be afraid of being the first and single person on list :P) but I have played on the first stream so I can always free the slot if someone haven’t played before and all the slots are taken.

Put me down for, “I’d love to play again but want others to get a chance to sign up first.”

if additional slots are needed on the tail end, I may be able to pick up later hosting duties. haven’t hosted before, so not certain what’s involved on the Twitch side.

hope everything is okay with @noiserock!
