Billie and waveform experiments

I am experimenting with a 7.83 Hz waveform with a deviation of 0.1618 Hz in stereo and my little cat Billie, intrigued, places herself in the middle of the 2 speakers. I love playing Doctor Frankestein, er, Doctor #sebairstein #maxmsp #7,83hz #cats #waveform #iwanttobelieve #soundmedicine

The adorable Billie disrupts a delicate experiment with 7.83 Hz waveforms separated by 0.1618 Hz (a number connected to the golden ratio). From sebairstein.bsky.social on BlueSky.

Zemirot (Experiments with Video Synthesis)

I have been quite intrigued by video synthesis for a while, and finally getting around to doing something with it. Today, we present Zemirot, our first simple video-synthesis piece.

This was done using Vizzie2 in Max/MSP. And while it is extremely simple, that is to a certain degree the point, at least with this piece and others in what I expect will be a series.
