     melody here follows a fibonacci pattern

    Could someone perhaps explain how this follows a Fibonacci pattern?

    im sure I’m just being dumb

    numerically I understand what the Fibonacci sequence is, but I fail to hear anything in that song which sounds like 1,1,3,5,8,13,etc 

    it's the space between the notes in the melody

    if u think of a bouncing ball but in reverse which also follows the same pattern

    it first slows down then speeds up then slows down again everytime doing so following the pattern

    Awesome that u pointed this out!

    Np!

    I only found one mention of Fibonacci in bocpages:

    Quote

    On the track "The Devil Is In The Details", for example, a slowed-down female voice can be heard speaking in self-hynosis, accompanied by what at first sounds like snatches of singing, but then turns out to be a child screaming in despair. Furthermore, there is a riff in the piece that Fibonacci's Golden Ratio serves as the compositional basis for.

    Ehhh, pro-agonist was a pretty fucking good album. This is cringe though. 

    I just remember mushroom santa.. that's a fun track.

    Nwae I got curious and followed the links to the hic et nunc forums.. This is what they have to say for the new year

    Quote

    2021 is over, 2022 has begun.The past year has been one of great achievement for the HEN community.

    People from all over the world have come together in pursuit of art and freedom, creating the HEN community from scratch and creating the HEN platform.The community organises its own Hicathon events and the community helps talented artisans.

    HEN provides a space for grassroots artists around the world, for ordinary people around the world who love art, to breathe freely.Here there is no insatiable capital to gain profit and here there is no dictator to control everything.

    Art consumers can consume good art at an affordable price, and art creators can mint NFT at an affordable gas price and find supporters.In the frenetic, short-term profit-seeking crypto art space, the HEN community is one of the few unpretentious art communities.

    These honours belong to all the members who have contributed to the development of the community over the past year. Because of your dedication, a free artistic nation has been born.

    However, the past year has also seen great challenges for the community.

    The founders gave up on community governance and the community grew slowly. 2 months ago, the HEN platform was the largest NFT art platform on tezos. Now it is being gradually abandoned by a section of art creators and its number of users is being caught up by other platforms.

    Progress in community governance has been slow and there is currently no democratic, orderly and efficient governance framework, nor is there a selfless and capable community core to lead the community forward and meet the challenges of the rapidly changing crypto art space.The community gets bogged down in trivial matters rather than focusing on core issues.

    It is hoped that in the new year, community members will move forward in unity, be inclusive and respectful of those with different views, and work towards decentralised, democratic and efficient community governance.

    Making the community’s product, operational and future strategies happen quickly and effectively. To grow and continue to create value for a free art nation in the fast competing crypto art space.

    Only in this way can the collective interests of the HEN community be protected.Art creators can find their favourite artworks more easily, and hDAO holders can have a stable long-term growth.The hard work of community workers and developers is what makes for a sustainable, appropriate return.

    We hope that in the new year, we will all work together to make the future of the HEN community brighter and the ecological development more prosperous.

    Happy New Year, HEN Family!

    I found it interesting to see how these people think.. Is all very bizarre to me

    BOC repeatedly mentioned that sometimes they compose melodies or enture tracks using the Fibonacci sequence or fractals or other mathematical frameworks.

    I've been researching for some examples on this in their music but couldn't find anything yet. I know that some tracks / albums follow a very symmetric design, i.e. a palindrome. But in regards to Fibonacci and fractals I can't it in their music.

    Can you name a few examples?

    WE NEED MORE OPN BREAKCORE DAN!!! DAAAAAAN!!!

    (Kid606) offered his unsolicited advice afterwards.

    “I remember him leaning over,” explains Lopatin, “and screaming ‘good set but you gotta get rid of that Juno and looper act.’ I was so offended; I was like, ‘This is my SHIT. What is your shit? Breakcore?’ 

    its interesting because what he's doing kinda feels like it goes against the sophie quote he has on his website

    just checked it randomly today and saw that, fond memories!

    The amount of circle-jerking coming from the opn camp about the new weeknd album has been fucking bizarre... I feel like I'm living in an alternate reality. Like... it's a rehash of magic, AND it's a really generic phaux-80s synth pop record.. Why is everyone I'm seeing talking like it's some sort of masterpiece??? 

    truth, will we ever get anything like this again??

    daniel pls

    Can we get artists to drop the hardware for like a year and do only max/msp for the duration?

    Disclaimer: I might b a bit drunk

    I was listening to this new weeknd stuff and knowing that opn was involved honestly made me depressed. How does one go from this.

    to that??

    Now something I have noticed and correct me if I'm wrong is that really talented artists that have touched daws and either go back to or embrace hardware keep making good music but not nearly as adventurous or engaging as when they used daws or mostly daws*. The best example of this (and I think I've been raving about this for years) is rdj. Sure syro is technically impressive yada yada but it simply doesn't touch the stuff he made on playerpro or using digital means on windowlicker.

    And nobody touches ae unless they use the digital means (I know I know there are v talented people w hardware that come close but u get my point!)

    So! I propose artists try dropping the hardware (for a timeperiod).. esp if they have peaked using daws previously.. and try it again! 

    obv is a different story if u have been using hardware all ur life n stuff.

    *(obv exceptions spusher, richard devine, ceephax etc)

    So am I just ignorant? if so let me know 

    Would b cool to hear rdj back on the trackers or similar that's my whole point

    and y is opn doing these pop musics so sad

    :catsuicide:
