Algebra applies to the clouds
Aug 15, 2022, 08:08 AM
Composition by Jeff Dungfelder.
"I was drawn to the mathematical precision of the sample “Calculating Machine”, using it as the foundation for my reimagined composition “Algebra applies to the clouds”. I pictured the disappearing sound floating away into into the clouds as they reflect in a calm lake.
"A fitting farewell to a soon to be extinct sound. The sound may no longer be common in todays urban world, but it goes on to live another life somewhere, somehow. Composing the layered tracks, I used mathematical patterns, created in the moment, that opened up the possibility of chance to hopefully capture the beauty of this calculated randomness.
"Like all of my music, this was a sound experiment without preconceived intentions. It can also be looped to create a soundtrack for ones imagination. Close your eyes, listen and float away."
This is part of the Obsolete Sounds project, the world’s biggest collection of disappearing sounds and sounds that have become extinct – remixed and reimagined to create a brand new form of listening. Explore the whole project at https://citiesandmemory.com/obsolete-sounds
