Thing-a-day 6: Chaos Patcher

Thing-a-day Day 6

I created a patcher in Max 5 that generates numbers using a simple chaos equation. This modular component can be applied to frequency, amplitude, quasi-tempos, etc… Today’s mp3 demonstrates chaos as it is applied to pitch.

The great thing about chaos, as opposed to a random number generator is that if you listen long enough you can hear micro patterns emerge, evolve and dissolve.
