pulsate

being what i found today... idly thinking about that lovely tonematrix... and stumbling from that onto a newer thing that he made... (andre michelle)...

this is the pattern i'm listening to right now... and i'm really enjoying it...

each circle expands until it hits another circle (also expanding) - they ring out a sound then both start shrinking until they're nothing then they expand again...

the bottom 2 circles... and the top 2 circles would be doing things independently if the middle circle wasn't there... they'd be locked into two different tones... with different cycles...

but the middle circle messes with them...

and it's all so non-linear dynamics... and a little bit solar systemeee as well...

there will be long periods where a small number of different tones are produced, with subtly shifting timings... like the top 2 will be just locked together making the same tone... the bottom 3 will be locked into a pattern of there own... until something shifts just far enough and everything changes again...

and this is just this pattern that i've got here...

sadly you can't save anything... or remove individual circles... you can just put in circles one by one or remove them all... but it's still a lovely, lovely thing... and it brings about a lovely calm in me...

Deflea again

actually this was yesterday... the little blighters are still around so i thought maybe i did the last deflea wrong?

anyway... she forgave me almost immediately... i think because although i did lock the cat flap she didn't try and go through it... which is a pretty traumatic thing... racing away from the abusive human only to bang your head against the cat flap...

saw gong last night along with space ritual @ the forum... a friend of A's had a free ticket... steve hillage was in the band and that was nice to see... some of those gong tunes are fantastic and i'm about to fire up spotify and see if they're on there...

indeed they are... angels egg - (radio gnome invisible part 2) the 1st album i ever heard... courtesy of my brother... lovely...

the booker has begun...

i'm 160 odd pages into parrot and olivier in america by peter carey... which is good but a bit hammy so far... it turns out C by tom mccarthy did make the short list so i'm one book ahead of the game already...

this music does make me want to smoke... and smoking does not particularly agree with reading all the booker price shortlisted books before october 12th...

so there's a conflict...

anyway - happy sunday x
