Disquiet Junto Project 0063: Gregorian-orian-ian

process:

load the file in audacity. hit record (audacity's default behavior here is to play the file and record, so you get a tinny recording of the file, on account of the tinny laptop speakers). mute the original track and hit record, so now you get a tinny recording of the tinny recording. repeat. repeat. repeat.

no supercollider!

Disquiet Junto Project 0063: Gregorian-orian-ian

This week’s project involves the role of architectural spaces in the composition of music. It is a shared-sample project that takes a piece of Gregorian chant as its source material.

These are the steps:

Step 1: Download this OGG audio file that contains a recording of monks singing Gregorian chant at the Abbey of Sant’Antimo in Italy:

Step 2: Play back that recording loudly in a highly reverberant space and record it. Your best bet may be a bathroom.

Step 3: Create a new piece of music using the recording you just made as your primary source material. You cannot add any new source material. You can manipulate the audio recording as you please, but restrict yourself to effects that simulate echo, such as delay, reverb, and looping. You may also use the original OGG file, but only in addition to your own recording of it being played back in the reverberant space.
