The video for 'Collapse' looks to match the sequence of processes and distortions within the audio, by affecting footage and animation through a series of analogue junctions. As a means of synchronising sound and image an electromagnetic coil was used, which when triggered by the audio outputted from a power amp created corresponding visual distortions. This resulted in the audio directly driving and shaping the signal itself. A cube was used as a structure that could be collapsed throughout the video, shifting from solidity to a series of disparate distorted planes, still locked to the sound but no longer contained in its original state. This work is currently being developed for a live context, expanding on the performative possibilities of signal processing, distortion, and transmission. 'Collapse' forms part of emptyset's 'Collapsed' ep on Raster-Noton.

Collisions between particles inside the Large Hadron Collider atom smasher have created what looks like a new form of matter. The new kind of matter is called color-glass condensate, and is a liquidlike wave of gluons, which are elementary particles related to the strong force that sticks quarks together inside protons and neutrons (hence they are like "glue").

YES! Check out the label raster-Noton for more of this stuff! I think they might just be under Raster now but their catalog is out there. CoH, Komet, Byetone and many others are really astonishing artists who exhibit similar techniques and sounds.

That drop is so good! That hard F minor. It's like something you'd encounter in an EDM track but obtained through this conceptual natural process. Amazing!

Not only is the music awesome, but your video style is RIGHT down my alley. Very much the sort of thing I'm doing. LOVE IT. Is this all analog video glitching, perhaps with some video synthesis?

That what you showed is no Disstortion, its called "Interference". Every Tone & Waveform produces specified spectrums which can interfering. Thats quite normal, because Phonons are Quantumparticles which running as fast as sonic.

I listened to Lorn, because I thought it would sound closely the same. It did not. I recommend Senking, Alva Noto, Pan Sonic and Ryoji Ikeda for somewhat similar music.

Samuel Sundin Waldenström thanks for the reco Ill def check those out and sorry if u got that impression but imo both Belief Defect and Lorn have a unique sound (with Lorn truly in a realm of his own which is why I love him so much) Hes fully tapped in. It was more of a "vibe" or "mood" I was pointing to. Kangding Ray is another I quite enjoy for similar reasons. 🖤

what do people actually use to create sounds like this?

@howdoifixmyspacebar 7 жыл бұрын

AFAIK most of Emptyset's work consists of basic, mostly unmodulated patterns recorded from analog equipment which then gets digitally edited. Emptyset are really into exploring the physicality of low-freq/high-dB sound so a lot of the "effects" you hear are actually acoustic stuff like physical interference and harmonic resonance from the recording environment or signal decay from the synths/speakers/mics operating beyond normal thresholds. Though you can do this sort of stuff with any digital or analog instrument; you just need something capable of producing sub-bass/infrasound and some really huge speakers. Check out their other releases "Medium", "Material", and "Signal". The first two are the recordings of essentially blasting extreme freqs through different buildings with very different results, and "Signal" is a recording of an experiment where they transmitted patterns over a long range VHF radio circuit (Berlin to Indre, France) to hear how ionospheric conditions changed the signal. .
