Binary Beat
Binary Beat from Niklas Roy on Vimeo.
"This is an experiment, where I count one byte up - from 00000000 to 11111111. Decimal spoken, this is from 0 to 255. I have assigned a sound to each bit and when it switches from 0 to 1, the sound is played.

3^n Beat
3^n Beat from Niklas Roy on Vimeo.
"This is an experiment, where I'm counting in the numeral system on the basis 3. The count goes from 000000 to 222222. In the decimal world, this is from 0 to 728. I have assigned a sound to each digit and when it switches from 1 to 2, the sound is played.
This video is part of an investigation of the correlation between numeral systems and music. While the beat in this video sounds a bit awkward, it is interresting to compare it with the binary beat."

Wow that gotta be the coolest thing I've seen in a while.
ReplyDeleteEveryone keeps doing all kinds of fancy "more-random-than-you" type composition thingies, and turns out just a binary counter sounds that nice.. :P
