Fixed media piece for NYCEMF 2017

[gogins]

Vague ideas since Black Mountain.NN.html is not satisfactory...

Re-implement the original Java Silence framework in JavaScript (or port CsoundAC to WebAssembly).

Something about AND, OR, and NOT in the MCRM algorithm.

What I did is just an axiom with three different rescalings of the Lindenmayer system. The piece is Black Mountain 7c.html. The harmony is reasonably convincing most of the time and two or even three sections are rather involving at times. The piece lags at the end of the 3rd and final section. I must put this aside now to focus on the visual music piece.

I have been frustrated to no end by getting interesting harmony in some sections at the cost of muddy harmony in other sections.

I am now trying to solve this problem by putting rules for each level of iteration with voiceleading operators only at the middle of each rule.

The key actually is to start with a single chord and then try to break it up nicely. I am somewhat more confident that I can get a real piece this way.

The piece is now _BlackMountain.7d.html. It is almost there. Pans need to be distributed and the Harpsichord level needs to come up another dB or two.

Then I need someone to listen to this thing because I have now heard it hundreds of times. I hope some people come to the NYCSUG meeting so I can use them to do this.

[gogins]

I have distributed the pans and boosted the Harpsichord level.

After the meeting if I am not happy with responses I will try to do a completely different piece.

Judy Klein did not like this as much as an earlier, more static version. The others (Keith Patchel, Hubert, Leonid, Tom) seemed to like it.

I am going with 7d. I tweaked the balance after playing it with and without piano for Maria Mykolenko. Uploading now.
