RANDOM AUDIOBRAIN
Start date: 18.11.01
Copenhagen Brains Random AudioBrain Beta 0.1
The player
Random AudioBrain is an application which holds 3 audio players. Each player will at random pick an audiofile and loop it 3 times, then at random pick another (or the same) file. All 3 players are running simultaniously and will mix into eachother. The visual design of Random AudioBrain follows the guidelines of Supertool/Superdesign.
The files
The audio files can be in any audio format (i.e. mp3, wav, aiff, etc.) and can be swapped at any time by Random AudioBrain administrator. The files can vary in lenght, level, style and origin. Random AudioBrain does not prefer one file before another. Parameters regarding files will be developed after the first tests.
The participants
For Random AudioBrain Beta 0.1 the audio files will be provided by friends of Musicsystem. It is the intent to invite people to participate in Random AudioBrain, both for adding more content and for further development of the application. Info on participants will be presented.
The concept
It was the intent to create a tool to compose new and unheard pieces of audio.A tool with no preferences to audio other than what is available. This is not a common (or known) feature in other audio applications and therefore Random AudioBrains is programmed by Copenhagen Brains. Another focus was Copenhagen Brains fascination of the Random factor regarding computing. By letting the computer 'decide' what to mix, new compositions and remixes will occur. Random AudioBrain encourages to create audio with in mind that is to be used with other material in unpredictable computer controlled compositions.
The Installation
Random AudioBrain is to be installed at Rooseum in Supertool room. A visual presentation on participants will be present. A subchannel under Videosystem is made and will feature streammed output of Random AudioBrain.
The sourcecode
Random AudioBrain Beta 0.1 is programmed in Visual Basic by Copenhagen Brains and is at the moment only available for IBM compatible PCs. The sourcecode and the player will be released for free download on the websites of Copenhagen Brains and Superflex.
