Aleatoric Composition... THE MOVIE!
In my screen debut, I present to you, aleatoric composition THE MOVIE! Starring me. This outlines the method for this method of composition in a (hopefully) fairly simple straightforward & accessible manner. Please forgive the average sound and video quality, last night was the first time I have ever edited video, and I spent several hours trying to figure out how to get it uploaded and have it play correctly.
You can download the midi result here. Should you wish to do something with this midi file, please do so, I would love to hear (geddit?) from you.
As a follow up to this post on Aleatoric Composition, I was contacted by a writer from Future Music Magazine, which has spurred Dylan & myself onto more work in this area.
This time we went down to the train station and recorded an entire platform of video, and scored it as faithfully as possible in Sibelius. I took a little bit of liberty with what exactly made up each note - as at the far ends of the train station the grubby marks (notes) get pretty faint, and I didnt want 24 bars of silence before anything at all happened.
Dylan was along for the ride, and I have supplied him the midi. I'm going to have a tinker with it, and see what can be done using the music composed from the train platform. If we manage to cobble something that's not entirely awful together, you can expect another youtube monstrosity from yours truly.
