sweepstakes Posted July 4, 2021 Posted July 4, 2021 MAPSQUEST is the first release of the MAP CORPS netlabel. All proceeds go to the Union of Concerned Scientists to assist their research into climate related activities. Each of the 18 tracks was created by an artist aligned with the emerging aesthetics of so-called "mapcore". MAPSQUEST by MAP CORPS 1
Soloman Tump Posted July 5, 2021 Posted July 5, 2021 (edited) Listening now, nice tunes so far. Sounds like some of the stuff Polypores was doing with his Chaos Blooms and Tempus albums (but he uses modular instead of coding) I'm keen to know how you program the organic elements into this work - I know very little about live coding but I enjoy a bit of chaos theory, universality, complex systems, space-time intermittency and all that.

Oh interesting, I've never heard of Polypores or those albums! I did the first track which was actually all SC - I didn't live code it but I whipped it up fast and "played" pads/chords by running little snippets. Code is on Github and I can speak to it at least: https://gist.github.com/ryanlaws/576c970edf56b89796b6d79227b9cc86 Most of the performers were using the Monome Teletype which seems fucking amazing. I bought one but I haven't really dug into it yet because I have another SC thing I'm working on for the second Flash Crash stream next weekend: https://flashcrash.net/ Also thanks @Rubin Farr for fixing my embed goof!
sweepstakes Posted July 5, 2021 Author Posted July 5, 2021 Oh yeah, I should also mention, we have a fun companion site for the label with essays, tutorials, photos, etc. including a couple from Brian Crabtree (founder of Monome) and Trent Gill (founder of Mannequins). We're having a laugh doing web dev like it's 2007: https://mapcorps.net/ And thank you for listening! 1
