Real-time control

Touch OSC

The modular OSC and MIDI control surface called TouchOSC is used for manipulating a Pure Data patch.

We desinged our own PD patch (the one submitted to Lab 4) and its corresponding TouchOSC surface to control some parameters of a synthesizer, which was developed to recreate kind of chemical bubbles, reactions and lava sounds involved in the universe and earth evolutions. Some of the parameters are LFO rate, waveform, amplitude or master volume.

Wekinator

The interactive machine learning in real-time software called Wekinator is used to map gestures from the web camera, by using this Processing code, to this PD patch and convert them into meaningful real-time changes on the timbre of the synthesized sound.

VST

In order to enhace the performance, we also add some atmospherical and drone synths during the whole piece. VST instruments such as ‘Ultra Analog VA-2‘ and ‘Synthmaster‘ have been chosen for this task.
