Chaos and noise oscillator cluster #3433

Open baconpaul opened 3 years ago

baconpaul commented 3 years ago

Paul has a bunch of papers kicking around on chaotic systems Make some of them into new oscillators And maybe also do an LFSR and so on you know

hanysz commented 2 years ago

Can you publish any more details of what you have in mind here?

Suggestion 1: the xoxos synths angle, black and outer have some interesting chaotic oscillators. From xoxos's cryptic hints, I think it's something like http://www.joakimlinde.se/projects/oscNet/index.php with n=3 -- basically 3-op FM, but every operator can modulate every other operator, so you have some feedback loops.

Suggestion 2: if you get interesting chaos happening in an oscillator, can you add the same thing as an LFO mode too?

Ha yeah I have a bunch of ipythin notebooks on my hard drive but I need to consolidate them before I code anything. Definitely not this year thoigh - a 2022 project if we do it

hanysz commented 2 years ago

No problem. I'm really just asking out of curiosity. I'll look forward to whatever you surprise us with in 2022/23 :-)

FWIW, I have a bunch of open-source chaos algos in the HetrickCV repo, mostly rewrites of algorithms from SuperCollider and Reaktor. 1/2/3-op Chaos modules and Chaotic Attractors would be the most relevant.

Oh fun! Super useful
