Pi project upload



I uploaded my contribution, "cadae (a minor sea)" to the microsound
hotline server.

Assigning pitches from the C minor scale to each of the first sixteen
digits of pi, I used the website Visualizing Music: A Model of Harmony
(http://geocities.com/yaaarrrgg/music/index.htm), to play and record
this melodic pattern.  I captured gif images from the resulting staff,
converted them to bitmaps, then used Coagula to convert them to wav
files.  In SawCutter I assigned sixteen notes from the C minor scale and
recorded/saved the resulting loop.  Finally, I typed the first five
digits into SayIt, setting the pitch parameter to 314, speed to 31,
modulation to 3141, and cascade to 3.  I processed the individual sounds
in SoundForge, and composed them in Vegas.  To arrive at the title, I
established a simple number-to-alphabet code, so that =9331415=94 became
=93cadae.=94

Thanks,

G.
