Simple Harmonic Motion study #2a
6 months ago
Another study in simple harmonic motion and the nature of complex patterns created from the interaction of multilayered rhythms.
Here 30 nodes are oscillating with fixed periods in simple harmonic motion, with each node having a slightly different frequency. The total loop cycle duration is exactly 120 seconds (60s for the audio).
General information at memo.tv/simple_harmonic_motion
Specific information about this particular simulation and audio at memo.tv/30_chromatic_metronomes_at_0_29_bpm

Last time I stumbled over the Math book of Johannes Keplers "The harmony of the world"... Looks very interesting...

Maybe it is interesting for the generative design folks
Have you seen:

(When all the sounds come together it stands for 21st Dec. 2012, so you will understand the different cycles.)

Many many thanks.
