PIKSEL: DIN IS NOISE - LIVE CODING

DIN IS NOISE - LIVE CODING - S Jagannathan, Alex McLean

In this fully improvised, audio-visual performance, I use din (http://dinisnoise.org), a free software musical instrument exclusively for the GNU/Linux operating system. At the start of the performance, I set the scale (chosen to suit the time of the performance), the key of the music and set some drones on the tonic, 5th and/or 4th notes.

As the performance proceeds, we move inexorably towards total noise by modulating keys to microtonal pitches, reinterpreting the scales with aggressive FM & changing the timbre of the instrument live thru Bezier curve waveform editing.
