@acb@mastodon.social brilliant! Can you try with other fractals?

@acb@mastodon.social cool 👍🏻… und jetzt noch auf den Kopf stellen als response….

@acb@mastodon.social I've knitted that! I wish one could get musical 'tags' to hang on things - I'd have that music as a shawl pin!

@acb@mastodon.social My brain just exploded!

@simon@gred.al 2022-12-24 10:35
@acb@mastodon.social you can really hear the fractal/recursive nature of it! I’ve recently been playing with a Tower of Hanoi so maybe I’m just atuned to it right now :)

@acb@mastodon.social Amazing!!

@acb@mastodon.social surprisingly quite festive sounding

@acb@mastodon.social J S Bach would be proud to have called this his work.
-
@fishidwardrobe@mastodon.me.uk 2022-12-24 10:55
@acb@mastodon.social this is just lovely. Did you pick a scale for it, or is it just regular notes?
-
@fabricatus@aus.social 2022-12-24 11:30
@acb@mastodon.social it looks like the tri-force of Zelda fame, and the music does somewhat remind me of the game. Probably coincidental though!

@EmJaeCaer@mastodon.social 2022-12-24 11:34
@acb@mastodon.social I love this so much. Now I want an Adam Neely video on why it works so well.

@acb@mastodon.social fascinating

@yingtai@zirk.us 2022-12-24 13:21
@acb@mastodon.social #alt4you Cursor progresses through equilateral triangles filled with dot pattern, all sharing a baseline, but increasing fractally in size and complexity. Each dot corresponds to a note on the piano keyboard across left edge of image. The music reaches a crescendo with each triangle peak, increasing in complexity, length, pitch and loudness. Sounds like Bach, surprisingly catchy. 1st phase: 3 triangles of each size. 2nd phase: triangles are built up gradually over time.

@acb@mastodon.social That's fantastic!

@kagan@wandering.shop 2022-12-24 15:15
@acb@mastodon.social That is *FABULOUS!* I do not have words for awesome I think that is.

@jazztronaut@graphics.social 2022-12-24 19:21
@acb@mastodon.social This sounds a lot like some of Philip Glass's work!

@bel_lion@idlethumbs.social 2022-12-24 21:49
@acb@mastodon.social That was pretty! I could totally see that as background music for an automata workshop in a magitech setting

@iansmcleod@fosstodon.org 2022-12-25 01:31
@acb@mastodon.social Wonderful! Thank you for sharing. Translating a sequence to music was part of a recent Numberphile video which I greatly enjoyed. The music translation starts at about 5:20 but it's well worth watching the intro. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBU9E-ZOZAI

@acb@mastodon.social that is so nice! I want it for my wake up alarm.

@acb@mastodon.social That is incredible and beautiful.

@michaelcoyote@mastodon.social 2022-12-25 05:02
@acb@mastodon.social This is very cool. I've seen other places where music and mathematics intersect so I would have guessed, and some mathematics / music theory nerd could probably explain why. In fact I would imagine that experiments like this are how mathematics/music theory nerds are born.

@mur2501@qoto.org 2022-12-25 09:41
@acb@mastodon.social Did they used a python script to generate MIDI notes out of the triangle coordinates?
-
@toxi@mastodon.thi.ng 2022-12-25 10:13
@acb@mastodon.social Amazing & loving the build up! I've also had great success with using 1D #CellularAutomata in the same manner. You could also try adding secondary #Fractals/automata to control note durations, create #PolyRhythms, cause key/chord changes, self-modification of rules etc. Here's a video of an installation for which the realtime composed music is using both of these approaches (and other #GenerativeMusic techniques): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQ988B5vlyo

@acb@mastodon.social this is incredible

@invertedtritone@dice.camp 2022-12-25 13:48
@acb@mastodon.social as much as i love this, it also sounds *exactly* like those piano scale studies i had to learn when i was just starting out lol
-
@NafiTheBear@snaggletooth.life 2022-12-25 15:21
@acb@mastodon.social this sounds like a procedural fuge XD. Funny.

@acb@mastodon.social nice, is that #Renoise it's hard to see because it's a little blurry.

@richardh@mastodon.nz 2022-12-26 09:13
@acb@mastodon.social I'm no musicologist, but it reminds me of Ravel's Bolero

@acb@mastodon.social @daniellebraun@mastodon.art lekkere patroontjes, Danielle!

@Aminorjourney@mastodon.lol 2022-12-26 14:21
@acb@mastodon.social I love this. It’s minimalism but with math.

@nash@labyrinth.social 2022-12-26 16:32
@acb@mastodon.social @alienmelon@mastodon.social I love this, because one of my favorite play projects involves rendering cellular automata into music, and many 1D cellular automata like to generate Sierpinski triangles -- so I've also listened to a lot of Sierpinski triangles as music! Although none were arranged quite so nicely as this 🥰
