Last weekend I did an installation in a room wrapped in bubble-wrap. Friends had the idea, and asked me to "do something interesting with sound."
A bubble-wrap pop isn't terribly interesting on its own, so I thought I'd pitch-shift (starting with the pitchshift example patch) and delay the inputs, and then I added randomization of the pitch shifting and delay parameters. On top of that, I randomized the intervals at which the params were updated. I used four mic inputs and randomized panning to four outputs. The patch, ultimately, looked like this: http://onezeromusic.com/snwv/impulse_noise.png Kind of ugly there, but it's a work in progress, and worked great for the three-and-a-half-hour installation time. I didn't worry much about feedback, but the mics did pick up the input, so there was a generative thing going on there, particularly by the end. The results, summed to stereo: http://snwv.bandcamp.com/album/impulse Now I'm experimenting the patch on oscillators: https://soundcloud.com/maurice-rickard/tonebubble2 In a few weeks, I'll be doing an improv show in which I'll use this on guitar. Should be fun.
