Making Experiences through HydraVideoSynth & P5

Made a sketch using Hydra/LiveCodeLab for Visuals and SonicPi for Audio
For the SonicPi portion, I decided to make each "Arrangement Function" act as an Orchestra Member
For the Hydra/LivecodeLab Visuals, Added the Find Edges filter in post-production and slowed down the animation
The growth is seen
Within the boundaries of the screen
As shown in the scene
Where the sounds follow a particular stream
As the edges blur as it if they were steam
That is looking to burst as the seams
#Two chord based functions, one runs on a random assortment, while the other one iterates
def chordsChoose(notes,minMaj,minMaj2,timeChord,dc,st)
play chord(notes.choose, minMaj,decay: dc, sustain: st)
play_pattern_timed chord(timeChord, minMaj2), [0.25,0.5].choose
sleep [1,0.5,0.25,0.5,0.25,1].tick
end
def chordsTick(notes,minMaj,minMaj2,timeChord,dc,ak)
play chord(notes.choose, minMaj,decay: dc, attack: ak)
play_pattern_timed chord(timeChord, minMaj2), [0.25,0.5].tick
sleep [1,0.75,0.5, 0.25].choose
