Exploring some ideas with @moogsynthesizers Labyrinth, Mother-32 and Mavis, paired with the @torsoelectronics S4 Sculpting Sampler and @hologram_electronics Microcosm. ✨️🔮⁠

I love pairing effects processors (things like multi tap delays, glitchy/granular processing, etc.) with synths for live performance to create layers, density, and transitions -- it can allow you to get so much more out of a single instrument / sound source, and can help keep overall setups small. ⁠

For those of you who have a favorite synth + FX processor setup, what's your go-to? 👇️⁠

$The “Barnsley Fern.” When @esschicag commissioned me to compose a new piece of music for the Fern Room at Chicago’s Lincoln Park Conservatory, I started to research ferns and came across a fascinating fractal algorithm called the “Barnsley Fern.” This grew into an entire new custom module that I co-designed with @gastonsounds to use the Barnsley Fern algorithm as control voltage for electronic sound. I just released a super in-depth behind the scenes video on my YT channel, detailing the entire creative process behind this project - from initial ideation, to building the fern module, to composing and installing the new quadraphonic piece at the conservatory.
