I also love that this isn’t just a one-off novelty: sharing the tools means people could take the same technique in other directions, and find their own voice.
#MAC OSCILLOSCOPE EMULATOR SOFTWARE#
There’s a movie.Īnd there’s also more software – both for 3D models and Max and Pd patches. Now having put together proof-of-concept for the 3D model-to-oscilloscope software, the sound patches that make nice noises that also make nice illustrations, and some music, the next phase is an entire album. I’m dubbing this genre Wireframe Mushroom Oscilloscope Dubstep Glitch.Īnd some nice Pd patches to mess about with, for that free patching environment: And some of it is just a combination of painstaking sound design that simultaneously considers the visual dimension.Īnd then you can draw mushrooms too. Some of the trick is to do with Lissajous-mode oscilloscope generation, which graphs the visualization of the sound on an X/Y plot – where it makes more sense to the eyes.
There is actual sonic data informing the image and visa versa. This all looks like a special effect, like animation set to music, but it isn’t. Well, he’s been gradually building a vocabulary that both sounds and looks good – and even looks, in some cases, like a literal wireframe drawing. Simply put by him, (and accurately), “What sounds good doesn’t necessarily look good and great images mostly just make ear-deafening noises.” Right – that. Graz-based artist Jerobeam Fenderson is out to solve an age-old problem in the literal fusion of image and sound.
Imagine an Etch-a-Sketch and a laser show decided to collaborate on a glitchy electronic album, and they released a video and software to go with it. And of course you’ve seen 3D models.īut you probably haven’t seen oscilloscopes used to draw 3D models that make sounds while the sounds match the oscilloscopes in a 3D sound visual extravaganza … which then becomes an entire album with software that goes with the album so you can also use the oscilloscopes to draw 3D models to make sounds. You’ve maybe seen oscilloscopes used to make drawings while making sounds. You’ve seen oscilloscopes make visual representations of those sounds.
