Vector – composition for string ensemble

Vector – composition for string ensemble

Vector‬‭ is‬‭ a‬‭ composition‬‭ I‬‭ wrote‬‭ for‬‭ string‬‭ ensemble‬‭ using‬‭ a‬‭ stochastic‬‭ method‬‭ based‬‭ on‬ ‭ poisson‬‭ distribution,‬‭ inspired‬‭ by‬‭ Xenakis’ ‬‭ Achorripsis‬‭.‬‭ For‬‭ this‬‭ composition‬‭ I‬‭ have‬‭ also‬‭ written‬‭ a‬ ‭ paper‬‭ and‬‭ score‬‭ which‬‭ can‬‭ be‬‭ found‬‭ in‬‭ the‬‭ link‬‭ below.‬‭ In‬‭ the‬‭ paper,‬‭ I‬‭ explore‬‭ the‬‭ decision‬ ‭ making‬‭ factors‬‭ in‬‭ composing‬‭ algorithmically‬‭ and‬‭ a‬‭ part‬‭ of‬‭ my‬‭ process.‬‭ I‬‭ learned,‬‭ during‬‭ the‬ ‭ process‬‭ of‬‭ calculating‬‭ and‬‭ writing‬‭ the‬‭ score,‬‭ that‬‭ when‬‭ composing‬‭ algorithmically,‬‭ it‬‭ is‬ ‭ important‬‭ to‬‭ have‬‭ a‬‭ strong‬‭ idea‬‭ of‬‭ what‬‭ the‬‭ piece‬‭ should‬‭ be.‬‭ I‬‭ focussed‬‭ on‬‭ how‬‭ the‬‭ numbers‬ ‭ could add to the narrative of the piece.‬ ‭
