Following the techniques I introduced in "Rhythmic Processing" and "Convolution Processing", I came up with Rhythmic Convolutions, a type of Impulse Responses designed to introduce motion into the processing and specifically designed for the processing of rhythmic sounds, drum machines, real drums, beat boxing and in general instruments that have a percussive quality.
I made the Impulse Responses from organic sounding sources and materials like metal, glass, paper, rubber, wood, water, etc.. These are the 10 sonic themes, that can also be mixed together to create hybrid sounding results:
1. “1905“, created from dismantled pianos, played with a variety of techniques and objects.
2. “Chaos Theory“, created from random events, background noises, air, wind.
3. “Electrical“, created from the interaction and processing of electric and electromagnetic interferences.
4. “Grains“, created from motions and contacts with barley, rice, sugar, red pepper and sand.
5. “LiquidGlass“, created from the manipulation of water and contacts with glass recipients.
6. “Metalsmith“, created from the manipulation of several metallic sources and custom built instruments.
7. “Minerals“, created from the manipulation of stones, pebbles, bricks, tiles and cement.
8. “PaperMaker“, created from the manipulation of paper, cardboard, magazines and books.
9. “RubberMan“, created from the manipulation and processing of rubber, plastic, elastic sources and custom built instruments.
10. “Woodland“, created from the manipulation and interaction with wood sources and surfaces, logs, boards, trees and twigs.
