wave terrain synthesis

["Tim Mortimer" <tmortimer@xxxxxxxxx>]

ok.

ive seen this.

http://www.cim.mcgill.ca/~clark/nordmodularbook/nm_oscillator.html#terrain

can anyone offer any additional links or info about wave terrain synthesis?

i get the basic concept, but am uncertain in the above example how the
tracing of the circular motion on the terrain occurs.. a nice simple hand
holding analogy anyone?

..& what kind of adjustments or additions could be made to the example
formula...

(& please consider the desired terms of address to be "laymans".... my
maths/ programming knowledge is very limited - toying around in reaktor is
about as far as i get - im on pc... a bit scared off by Csound or PD at the
moment, despited being interested & somewhat drawn to the concepts,
obviously, as im on this list  ; )

anyway, i digress. many thanks.
