# SawToothNoise

For my 16th sketch of Mathober2025 coded in ***SonicPi,* SawToothNoise** takes the 21st Prompt of **“Sawtooth”** & 30th Prompt of **“Minor”** and uses it to code and manipulate the audio through a minor scale and having sawtooth adjust the rate.

## Poetry

```ocaml
Even Though the sound is in stereo
The relationship of the lines go
From most to least
But doesnt mean
That this scene
Ends with an ease
Audio
```
