PMP is an audio-visual Collective that focuses on the synaesthetic experience where sound and visuals react in real time, steering away from the notion that audio and visuals are often the by-products of one another.
This blog is a sketch book of sorts about our work process and some things that we find interesting. To find out more about us please visit our website at pmp.fm
Online, Generative Tool Searches for the Perfect Groove
This demo, via Torley, takes at Sonic Charge Patternarium, a new site that lets you help “evolve” beats, by using a social media voting mechanism.
The site creates beats algorithmically and then they “evolve” to survive:
Our servers are regularly spawning new generations of a thousand unique patterns, each one being the cross product of two other patterns picked at random. The higher votes a certain pattern receives, the more likely it is to get picked and bear offspring into the next generation. This means that you may participate and influence the outcome of Patternarium simply by voting.
The beats are designed for uTonic and are public domain. You can download the “evolved” beats and use them with uTonic.
