Medium:
Electronic Sound
Artist Statement:
Atropos evokes images of a dystopian environment. Electronic sounds are generated by a stochastic process that takes its cue from genetics, for example using frameshift mutation, base substitution, and sequence inversion. The implementation is semi-improvised, as it is driven by random generated variables such as sequence, pitch, duration, and dynamics. The formal structure is made of molecules designed as containers, part of an out-of-time category.
