I long for a indefinite time when the attention is focused on a single sound.

Tech:Â
Each nxH is a livecode improvisation from the blank screen with the help of some presets such as classes and code snippets.
Â
Each function is pseudorandom, thus, each recompilation produces sound a little different but preserves the same high-level structure.
Â
The aim is to find a algorithmic compromise between novelty and repetition.
Â
 Aesthetics:
Â
Primarily, my interest is to direct the focus of attention only on the sound. Distractions such as the structure, analogies, and so on. would go undetected.
Â
The ”drone’ ‘is ideal for this task, as the harmony and rhythm (in the classical sense) are secondary or nonexistent.
Â
The main hypothesis (hence the experimental label) is that careful listening, focusing on a single point, contributes to the dissolution of the flow of thought we call consciousness and that is the basis of ego as a source of suffering.
