Composition 4 (Mars) has began to come together. The graphic score (featured below in diagram 1) has now been processed and an audio clip showing the transformation will soon go live and then will be embedded into this blog.

This score was imported into Metasynth and inverted so that sound could be heard. I changed the synth sounds so that I found something I liked and then put the sound through the FX synth in order to change the sound. The process the sound went through can be seen in the video below and heard in the soundcloud clip below.

In order to use the piece to create new sounds, I manipulated the sound without the use of (much) software. I set up 2 speakers against a metal barrel in a studio and played the full symphony through the speakers. A Neumann U87 microphone was positioned over the top of the barrel and recorded the sounds from the music, the room and the barrel. Whatever the microphone picked up I re-input into ProTools so that each time it went through the system it would have new properties. This can be heard in the audio clip below.
