info:

Artist: Alku
Title: Formatissimo I + II
Software: Pure Data
An audio blueprint of the classic chicken / egg dilemma. A PD program
generates a text file filled with random numbers which is then converted
into audio data. The resulting audio is then analysed and dumped into the
same text file which is then re-converted again... and again... and
again.... Formatissimo deals with the issues of creation, iteration and
endless recycling.

Artist: Steinbrüchel / Brusa
Title: -00:dedaih
Software: Director
-00:dedaih is a computer generated audiovisual piece utilising pristine
tones and clean sharp microtextures. It was created for the Migros Museum of
Contemporary Art in Zürich and recently released as a 3" CD on synchron.

Artist: pix
Title: tabfight2k-r4nd1
Software: Pure Data
pix is a developer and part-time collaborator with Farmersmanual.
His work is often based on the capture and transformation of data streams
to control sound and video. tabfight2k-r4nd1 is inspired by the act of
rendering kernel (operating system) data directly to the computers
soundcard.

Artist: Renox
Title[s]: microsounds2004 - rand2DLsND8, rwalk, abstractB
Software: Director / Shockwave
Renox uses classic structural algorithms like Pythagoras and Fourier to
control and grow audio fractal patterns. These abstract forms trigger
microsound fragments, creating a delicate ambient sound space.

Artist: Tom Davis
Title[s]: Music on Hold
Software: Pure Data
Tom Davis lives in Bristol (UK) and has just finished a Masters in Creative
Sound Production. He is currently working on interactive systems for
performance. Music on Hold is a generative piece of telephone 'on hold'
music. It utilises markov chain probability to control the playback of
various simulated instruments (vibraphones,organs and synths).
