about

This album consists entirely of self-playing autonomous patches that I made on my custom modular system between 2011 and 2020. They are short live excerpts of pieces that would run for days or months, in some cases streaming openly over the internet. I didn't 'play' or 'tweak' anything here - this is just what the machine did after I installed the patch compositions. More info on the synthesizer system that I designed and used here is at synth.media.mit.edu and paradiso.media.mit.edu/synth.html
