hello world by seahorse valley
2018 album contest submission!
this album is the result of an experiment: using custom software to generate music.
I created an algorithm which outputs musical sequences based on user-supplied guidelines. Groupings of these sequences were layered up using GarageBand, and the result is what you hear.
The effort was an attempt to use math and logic as the foundation to explore those spaces which lie beyond binary.
