That's a sweet concept, and a fun way to collaborate with active field recording. I'll have to try that (giving you guys reference cred of course)!

I've used very rough "impulse" recordings to do binaural placement for sounds--as well as pure abstract textures as Malte suggested--with very nice results.

Max Borisov wears ear-mount binaural microphones, and I test the space with bricks and stones. Max and I found this technique very interesting, as it allows one person to literally "become" a human microphone, and the other to perform for that audience/recorder [many thanks to Aaron Ximm for inspiration in this and other matters]. A clever soul might use these acoustic signatures to place other sounds in the same space virtually... *** Original Formanta EMS-01 Synthesizer improvisation [OGG 2min08sec 1.34Mb] http://www.gracies.org/derek/audio/formanta.original.edit.ogg Formanta.Drone [Surface.Noise] [OGG 7min10sec 4.92Mb] http://www.gracies.org/derek/audio/formanta.drone.edit.ogg The first is an excerpt of a live improvisation made on Maxim Borisov's Formanta EMS-01 synthesizer. This is a big, nasty Russian synth that is almost totally useless for melody, but has this amazing noise-driven Low Frequency Oscillator with an array of filters behind it. All sounds on the first track came only from this random sequencer, without laying a finger on the keys. The second track resulted from a digital cross-breeding with surface noise from an old Soviet marching record--instant texture and depth! -- derek holzer ::: http://www.umatic.nl ---Oblique Strategy # 160: "Towards the insignificant" _______________________________________________ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
