Music in your experience begins where those two domains end. Music is a higher level of abstraction. imo hm, interesting. frequency is derived from amplitude. audio data is only 2 dimensions: time and amplitude. frequency is a result of change in amplitude. the changing amplitude values move the woofer, writing the information to the air as changes in pressure, which move out from the woofer in a sequence. the pressure changes are interpretted by the ear, which measures the sequence of changes in pressure. so, if i'm getting this right, the nervous system receives the data in it's derived state: frequency, because the ear measures change in pressure, which is change in amplitude, which is frequency. just realized that the mind and computers operate at different levels of sound. you're right though, the mind operates with the basic dimension of frequency (and time).

I just find the combination of shape and color a bit nauseating, plus it looks so ancient while the musics are still fresh. And I don't mean 1990s old, I mean 1930s to 1940s old, the whole thing looks like a still from a fucking Oskar Fischinger video. No disrespect for him either, but I think it confuses me because I don't know if it's intentionally retro or if there's some story behind it that I'm unaware if or whatever the fuck is going on there. The font, the slightly pretentious all-lower-case phrase "mechanically reclaimed" and the extremely enerving spacing between those slashes don't help either btw. Everything else in their catalogue ranges from kinda alrightish (Amber, Quaristice) to hella awesome (Confield, Draft 7.30) afaic. This was my sophisticated deep reading of the cover image of Sicklesweat by the influential electronic pop group Awrtekker. If you liked it, please support me on Patreon. Thank you for that considered and thoughtful reply. I trust you took my criticism of your criticism as nothing more than a friendly jab. I do respect your right to be different, otherwise we'd all be fighting for the same pair of shoes. You do make some very valid points. Nauseating color, check. Pretentious addendum, ('mechanically altered'), check. Cutsey pun title, check. As you mention, the art has a retro vibe, though I would peg the aesthetic as 1980's color and wire frame graphics put through the then modern blender. cichlisuite is perhaps the most lighthearted and playful title in the entire AE catalog. I've always felt the art, with all its whimsical quirks, to be a very good match for the music within. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes! Just... although frequency is change in amplitude, what defines it is the speed of that change. If we deduce it completely it’s all about time; time/speed of amplitude (frequency domain) and time of events (time domain). That’s why we cant conceptualize music in other ways than as our internal experience, bc time is mind’s internal concept (space is external); we sense ourselves in/through time. That’s why music matters to us humans more than other forms of art. ok im out Edited September 17, 2020 by xox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why delay the release, especially when there's no hype-train, teasers, etc. ? =/ This I thought we were past this with the previous several AE releases just dropping out of the ether with little warning.

Adamovich Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 This is going to be a very slow glitchy bassy album. Given to what I've heard on HELSINKI ONE SIX, there is NO WAY the album will be something completely different. (I am jinxing) Ps. Thanks Sean for releasing Helsinki soundboard, I asked you for that on mixlr, you're my hero. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
