improv 11 — desert finding

improvising for Weekly Beats
my self-imposed limitations:


• digital piano as an input device (Yamaha P35)
• moderately limited warm-up before the recording
• no edits after the recording is made
• four VSTs for the year, one for each season


exploring improvisation as a practice of being here and now

monophony sucks and I didn't know this vst is monophonic so I recorded hands separately, applying the rules above
yeap, the right hand is basically just the noise

mental image: somewhere in a desert you can find sad fish statues

spring VST: Lumikko by Native Instruments

this time you created an icy desert kind of image in my head. Well done.

Sad fish statues big_smile I like how context you provide with mental image changes the feel for me. With statues it's kind of mysterious as well. I would add that in my image this happens at night smile. Well done.

That desert is huge.

GReat stuff

This is really cool. I like your approach and where you ended up

really interesting mental image - nice tones!
