    Here are some great videos of Hansi and Jerobeam (Chris) showing some of the behind the scenes "making of":
    This great talk by Hansi about the software and how he met Chris: ruclips.net/video/iM5BW75CKJQ/видео.html
    This short one showing them working together on some of the tracks: ruclips.net/video/IUNLm6kXMy0/видео.html
    I kid you not, I applauded spontaneously mid way through the first one.

      Youre exactly right! It sounds like an FM synth cause that's one of the two main effects he uses, FM and RM, to make the shapes. He uses one wave's frequency to Modulate the Frequency (FM) of another.

    • @axipixel5811
      @axipixel5811 7 лет назад +16

      That's because sirens are designed with music theory concepts in mind, even the oldfashioned rotor ones. The rotors had specfic mathematical numbers of rotors on each of the two spinners to do this. Sirens are designed to create extremely dissonant, out of tune chords between two notes. This is disturbing and generally creepy to the human ear, and this is on purpose.
      Honestly the old rotor sirens do a better job of it in almost all cases. Except the Chicago tornado sirens I swear they are more terrifying than the event itself.

    Also some nice phasing and binaural beats. You see what's going on with the change in harmonics.
    If SETI ever gets "dubstep music" from space, this should be one of the ways it needs to be looked at. Messages purposely sent out are likely to be made fairly obvious, and this is one way where not too much math is needed for the icons and pictograms to be right there.

      @hansiraber 8 лет назад +47

      yes, we do a lot of scoping together. but in this case it's completely jerobeams work. (there's also no osci studio used for the space scene at 13:11 , it's all done in max/pd ).
      a lot of it is really hard to credit actually, because everything exists already and it's just a matter of piecing it together differently. e.g. here's the butterfly: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_curve_(transcendental) and here are 3d projections: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_projection .

      That's an excellent idea! I think you can generate your own using Hansi Raber's OsciStudio software: oscilloscopemusic.com/oscistudio.php . That's Jerobeam's friend. Jerobeam also shows how you can use other free tools to make mathematical shapes easily here: oscilloscopemusic.com/software.php . I suspect you could do you test screen with these.
