Partitura 001 from Abstract Birds on Vimeo.

Realtime sound visualisation made with custom software “Partitura”
Sound by Telefon Tel Aviv

an ongoing collaboration between Abstract Birds and Quayola

Partitura is a custom software built in www.vvvv.org to generate realtime graphics aimed at visualising sound. The term “Partitura” (score) implies a connection with music, and this metaphor is the main focus of the project. Partitura aims to create a new system for translating sound into visual forms. Inspired by the studies of artists such as Kandinsky, Paul Klee, Oscar Fischinger and Norman McLaren, the images generated by Partitura are based on a precise and coherent system of relationships between various types of geometries. The main characteristic of this system is its horizontal linear structure, like that of a musical score. It is along this linear environment that the different classes of abstract elements are created and evolve over time according to the sound. Partitura creates endless ever-evolving abstract landscapes that can respond to musical structures, audio analysis and manual gestural inputs. It is an instrument that visualises sound with both the freedom of spontaneous personal interpretation/improvisation and at the same time maintaining the automations and triggers of mathematical precision.

Today I found this project I made two years ago with a friend (and fatal enemy) during my living at Barcelona. Click the image to play it Online. You can watch it with each of the 6 songs, from the selection list, and every time it will react differently, according to the music.

El dúo Colombo-Argentino Lulacruza presentará al público su nueva producción musical que nace en el terreno fértil donde la sensualidad y la tensión post-milenio se interceptan, y donde lo carnal y lo cósmico son vectores uniformes para viajar en el tiempo (Bogotá 10 de Marzo)

Music by Lulacruza & MJ Greenmountain
Video by Lucas Nieto

From the album “Soloina”
Filmed at El Tigre, Argentina

From the album “Soloina”
Filmed at El Tigre, Argentina

Esta agrupación experimental, considerada como una de las mejores panamericanas del nuevo folk, mezcla canciones y aires ancestrales con texturas acuáticas y brillantes secuencias electrónicas. Indiscutiblemente cerca de los sonidos selváticos y los rituales de las montañas Andinas, Lulacruza es a la vez la banda sonora de las grandes ciudades, desplegando canciones pegadizas, paisajes contemplativos y ritmos vibrantes, con letras que le rinden un estelar homenaje a la mismísima Pacha Mama.

Recently I found a very usefull way to interconnect throwgth the Network two MAC computers to synchronize musical interafaces via MIDI. And without any coding!!!

I made this to synch Ableton LIVE 8 in two computers. This way one of the computers is the Master and the other one is the Slave, allowing the two LIVE proyects to use the same CLOCK/ BPM and play together.

The commun way to do this was programming a MIDI channel and a Network connection, using Pure Data, Max/MSP or other coding Frameworks as OpenFrameworks. In this tutorial we will use the built-in Network MIDI that MAC OSX offers.
