Not A Waltz (disquiet0247) by plusch published on 2016-09-26T03:01:38Z I used Audacity to import the image (https://goo.gl/djQ31Y) as raw data, used the Change Speed effect to slow it down considerably, then saved it as a .wav file. I created a Pure Data patch to read that file, sampling the audio ten times per second and massaging the values into the range of 0 - 127, then sending them to MIDI CC 2, where Aalto received the CC values to modulate many parameters and create the sound. Multi-band compression was applied with ReaXcomp.
