This project explores how sequences of numbers sound when viewed as midi notes.
The first version simply converted an array of numbers to a midi file. For example, in a previous version I converted nucleic acid sequences(COVID 19) into sounds to create a dark ethereal soundscape. Newer versions are attempting to integrate more music theory.
This is not AI generated music. AI generated music is restricted to known sounds and patterns and struggles to escape from what is known into what is unknown. This project is an attempt to hear things which make no sound, DNA, transcendental numbers, pictures, words in a poem, and so on.
The below link takes you to a dynamic keyboard with many of the above features. You can even load your own txt files and dynamically parse them into a grid of notes. Autoplay the grid or click on notes to play.
