@atraeger Data-bent MIDI? Sounds cool. How? Just open in a hex editor and hack away?

    @d01 it was databent-like, not truly databent. around 2009 i downloaded some DIY hobbyist audio to midi app from sourceforge. But the algo was terrible. anything more than a monophonic melody turned into a garbled mess. Notes were seemingly random. and various CC channels, and program change info was filled with something like rhythmic noise. so if i fed it to VSTs or hardware, the synths would go haywire, switching presets, parameters jumping around, etc. this is one thing I made with those. I cut the midi into smaller loops and created arrangements and added some basic drums. https://oddperson.bandcamp.com/album/midiworks then I turned it into a visual album with audio reactive visuals using max/jitter feedback loops.
