I have this theory about 'growing an album'.
You build it up song-by-song, month-by-month, you replace some songs, add others, remix others, build out an album over the months and years live in front of people on all the platforms.
Until you feel it's done.
Any of your fans and followers have a full album and those that follow properly get rewarded with a bunch of other tracks as well.
Everybody happy. Thoughts?
I'm in the process of thinking about making and releasing a new album.
I am considering breaking it all down and writing / documenting about how I do each section as:
(a) some sort of tool / checklist for then I do it again,
(b) as a resource for other people,
(c) as a way of creating a snapshot of a moment,
(d) working out how I can improve on what I can do better next time
Idea:
Build digital and analogue instruments to record an album and then giving all the stems and source files away for free so people can remix.
And then repeat it.
Idea:
use #godotengine to design an interface linking to #Reaper and #Blender using #OSC and projection map live music and animations onto buildings around Europe.
Or something.
It’s here and it works. That’s all I’m gonna do now. Really limit myself to the instruments and make weird noises. Maybe get myself a field recorder and work it from there.

You can assign global hotkeys to trigger specific sounds, as well as make your computer keyboard work like a launchpad.

This is a prototype from Facebook’s (now abandoned) plans to read your mind.
Now do you understand what I mean when I say the business model of Silicon Valley is to farm you like livestock for your data? And that data about you – if you have enough of it and the right algorithms – IS you?
Now do you understand why we need a Universal Declaration of Cyborg Rights?
Bloody hell, the #bitcoin crowd have discovered my latest privacy post. So listen up: a billion identical copies of a database isn’t decentralisation. It isn’t a prerequisite for privacy. And if it destroys our habitat, it’s a crime against humanity. You can show yourselves out.
