Just a sound: compose in the sharing era. The Thalamus XSL Experience: a very good one


Just a sound: compose in the sharing era (and area). The Thalamus XSL Experience: a very good one.

December 2014 this call :

GET INVOLVED IN THE CO-CREATION OF THE XSL ALBUM
We want to involve you in the process of creation of an album, aiming to reach new horizons in collaborative art. With this in mind, we have been curating the XSL, a free sound collection by several artists around the world. A total of 324 audio files organized in 30 sound packs. Next, we are launching an open call for works created out of the sounds included in it.

I sent some short sounds I made with GENESIS, a physical modeling music synthesis program developed here a ACROE in Grenoble, where I am developing my research.

Now one (or more?) of this sounds compares in the album: some composer like this atom of sound and use it to compose his music:

I start listening the whole album to discover where an who and how someone use it.
I like this kind of art sharing: it has something in common with popular musical (and not only musical) tradition.
