Floyd Steinberg | Raspberry Pi based installation art: the melody that started at the beginning of the universe @mr_floydst | Uploaded February 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
"Pentatonic Permutations" ( pentatonic-permutations.de ) is a piece of algorithmic piano music that's performed in installation art using a Raspberry Pi-based hardware player synchronized to DCF77, an over-the-air time protocol. In this video, I sit down to talk with its creator, Benjamin Heidersberger, about the technical intricacies, artistic intents, the history of algorithmic music and how media consumption has changed over the last decades.
00:00 hello
00:46 interview - how the hardware player was made
03:08 does the development of technology pave the way for art?
04:21 artist intentions
06:49 coding the algorithm
09:06 how the web player / app was made
14:16 short demo: using the midi out function of the app with some synths
16:07 conclusion

Some bands / artists I've been following for a long time are (among others) Massive Attack, Pink Floyd, Pet Shop Boys, Archive, A-Ha, Yes, Porcupine Tree, John Mellencamp, Jean-Michel Jarre, Metallica, Peter Gabriel and Perturbator. So my music will kind of sound like those (without ever reaching the greatness of those artists, of course). :-)
