Collaborative sound design by Berlin artist Wilfried Hanrath
& P è n i n ș o l a r for the Disquiet Junto Project 0352 : Layering Permutations where both Wilfried and I worked along side to angulate layering permutations w' allocated counter-melodies along the outer parameters onto its final core by atopic & hovering variations in the confines of three "static" stacks of fathomage that seemed to align the outline of the assignment consummately.

The Assignment : Play something melodic atop two variations.

Step 1 : The idea is to have a simple melody of some sort, and to then have two variations on that melody play simultaneous with it. The key word here is “melody.”

Step 2 : Come up with a melody, and then come up with means to create variations on it. Think of the variations as permutations of the melody. Try to have the variations not veer too far from the original. As you develop the variations, think about relative balance between the three layers.

Step 3 : Record a short piece of music in which the three layers are stacked atop each other. You might perform the layers separately and then combine them, or you might have a means for them to play simultaneously. You might have the balance between the tracks remain static throughout, or you may change relative volume at times.
