Hi All, time for some more of my crazy sound/sonik/video/temporal art work.
 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nYxh3bZl8cg Look for the meta titling, and I would encourage you to listen in headphones because I've mixed this in 360 binaural.  I worked out Reaper has all the spatial tools needed to create binaural mixes, very cool, although I brought a 360 panner from a French company, just so I had a nice pro panner for the hard stuff.
 
And yes, the initial mix is still done in Sonar lol, :)...Sonar is still the best DAW in the business...one day I will get around to using Reaper in Rewire mode :).
 
Peace and Enjoy.

enjoyable.

Would not know what to say, thanks for sharing.

I've always loved clouds.  The John Constable paintings are cool.  I like how in your piece they were unadulterated, except for the *weight* of the moisture.  I did see a few birds but that cant be helped.  Was the first bit supposed to be a jet engine?  I wasn't sure what that was.

Yes, originally I had captured some Warthog (I think) planes fly overhead and had these in visually, but supervisor sort of pressured me to remove these...and in hindsight he was right.  It looks and sounds better to have these planes invisible.  The jet engines are actually mentioned in the last titling, where it says keynote sound jet engine. The concept of the keynote sound is something I borrowed from Barry Truax and his acoustic ecology concept.  It acts like a leitmotif or the sonic theme of the soundscape.
 
Think of the piece like a painting except with sound...a temporal poem if you will...if you look you can see a face emerge in the sky when the sun peaks through...it acts like an eye...to me it's the eye of 'god' if you will...hence all the sonic chanting going around your head.
 
All the sound is actually created from the field recordings, so sound and vision sync...or temporal audio.  Hence temporal poem, all of the sound is then fed into the granular synthesizer and sculpted into what you hear...then binaurally mixed.  The chanting you hear in piece is actually a bunch of school kids :). 
 
If you like clouds, I've got a couple more pieces you will like.
 
Cheers, and thanks for watching!!

Welp...I've sat through David Lynch's Eraserhead twice and this wasn't nearly as hard to endure. So...kudos for that. Ben, ol pal, just keep experimenting and pushing against those boundaries...first, because you are good at it and second, because it needs to be done. Rock on, me droogie...rock on.

more cloudbell.
 
:)
 
and, pretty cool stuff you Avant Gardner.

Thanks, that made me smile :).  I tried to watch Eraserhead...terrible film.  I prefer proper art films...The Man Who Fell To Earth, and Zabriskie Point, hecnce you could sit through mine possibly!

Some of my favorite experiences at museums are multi media presentations (installations)  I can see this set up on a huge curved screen in a dark room with those sounds.  You should do more of this.  It's a great respite from just looking at paintings and sculptures.
