I love it when you have stuff that's being generated by certain rules (random or not) and you can never replicate them again. You could obviously bounce it to audio and have it be the same everytime, but what's the fun in that!
Great track! Loved the pitch drifting near the end.

Really enjoyed this. I love generative pieces.
Great stuff.

Really enjoyed this. I love generative pieces. Great stuff.

Always a fan of generative work especially as I don't fully comprehend the complexities of it   Love those noisy bits that interact with the wavy synth lines.  Visuals of ants working in unison to carry away a fallen comrade.  Especially enjoy those stuttering bits as it peaks at the end.  Hope you are feeling better real soon.

Oof, tough break glad it sounds like you're doing better this week. Definitely a slightly unsettling but also really cool feeling on this track. Generative stuff seems so interesting, will have to dabble in this some day.

Agreed! There is something liberating about creating something unique that but disappears into the universe.

Before I knew the term in college (2008-ish) I was making generative stuff for different art installations. I've always really liked the concept as it ends up surprising you even if you've built the thing. The works and there output end up being a black box even though you might know how the sausage is made. That mystery and surprise is a great feeling.

I was quite happy with how this one came out upon listening again

Thank you for the well wishes. Up and well now
I kinda see what your saying, I'd add it also feels like waiting for time to pass to me. Pretty accurate to a lot of that week TBH.

Haha made me think of this for some reason. Though maybe it's a sign I should value the lives of the things I make more.

You absolutely should try generative stuff! I'd be really curious to see what you'd come up with. I mostly work by myself but sometimes generative creatitions can feel like working with different improving musicians with the right parameters. I always end up saything things like "oh that's an interesting choice", "I wouldn't have done that", or "I would have never come up with that".

It's also great to shake out and test ideas too. Sometimes I start with a genereative thing I like and take the good sections and use it a spring board for more traditional compositions.

There is a lot there!
