Subject:: (idm) head nodding generative music?....idea/question

Ok...I swear I am not on crack but I think this would be neat. So in hip hop, and some higher tempo music, you nod your head to the music in agreement with the beats. consider a full forward and full backward head-nod position. consider the velocity and acceleration inherent with the head nod. consider snare spacing (think drill n' bass/sounding like the 1st track off of RDJ album) which precicely modeled this velocity/position and/or acceleration curve. Consider bass spacing which modeled each forward/back nod. what would this sound like? would it be the ultimate groove? no, this is not an elaborate joke. I am seriously curius. I'm just about to go borrow some potentiometric tranducers from the ME lab and hook them up to a computer and generate an appropriate curve and lay the beats out by hand. but with all this talk of generative music, I think it would be an interesting approach to drum programming. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

yeah and i was just having a cup of tea the other day talking to some friends regarding a recording of silence which would eliminate everyday sounds, people talking shit on the bus or whatever. all sounds - complete silence. i want to do it. and if you would record it to tape, the recording would even eat the noise which inevitalby comes with every tape recording. how about that? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Not completely whacky. Something like the noise cancellation technique used in jets. I * np : Biosphere - Patashnik Who want to cancel noise when you can listen to this? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

This is also similar to the technique a lot of recording engineers used for recording hair metal bands in the 80's when the singer is doing overdubs (not live with the band). They'll take the whole mix and run it in mono out of two seperate stacks of amps turned up really fucking loud. Each stack is electronically out of phase with the other, so when the two stacks' sound combines at the mic (in mono), the mix is cancelled out, and the resulting band sound is very quiet, meanwhile the singer is screaming his nuts off because the sound is so loud and rockin' to him, and they mannage to get that "in your face" vocal sound so much of us adored twisted sister for.
