#cloudcomplex

Working on some engraving in Lilypond. There are far too many hacks and superfluous, redundant items to warrant this code being elegant by any means, but the end result is close to where I want it to be. Next up: How much of the electronics should be indicated (if at all)?

Using odd divisions to generate a sort-of danceable beat. Definitely Alva Noto inspired, the “beep” sound (for lack of a better name) is actually an EQ’d sample of plugging my 3.5 mm jack into/out of my computer. Dig that classic ‘90s sound!

Climactic, glitchy-beat sketch. Roving, rotating piano chords with light delay + granular + reverb effect will ring over this. 

Rho Ophiuchi Cloud Complex by Martin_Heigan About this image A Camera Lens image of a section of the large Rho Ophiuchi Cloud Complex. Rho Ophiuchi is a dark nebula of gas and dust that is located 1° south of the star ρ Ophiuchi of the constellation Ophiuchus (close to the red Supergiant star Antares). The camera was on my Telescope Mount, with Sidereal Tracking and Autoguiding to counter track Earth's rotation (as I would normally do with my Telescope). About the Interstellar Cloud Colors: Fine dust illuminated from the front by starlight produces blue reflection nebulae. The atoms of gaseous clouds that are excited by ultraviolet starlight produce reddish emission nebulae. Back-lit dust clouds block light and appear dark. Antares (a red super-giant star, and one of the brighter stars in the night sky), lights up the yellow-red dust clouds. Rho Ophiuchi lies at the center of the blue nebula. Interstellar clouds are even more colorful than we can see in visible light, emitting light across a large portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
