Sound Clip: NX004-01 Automatic by Miquel Parera Jaques

Miquel writes, “After much time listening to jazz, jazz-rock, rock, Beethoven and contemporary music, I grew tired. I no longer listen to music. But one day came to my ears Morton Feldman, Messiaen and Cage. I became revived and I realized that I needed to get back to the minimum as an exercise. My solution was to divide the computer sound to the classic way. Purely electronic sounds created with Puredata and acousmatic sounds created with Supercollider. Next, I use a simple Pythonscript which creates a semi-deterministic score (qlist) for 4 simple puredata generators.”
