Traditional / experimental practice
The Storm Approaches
A thirty-minute journey: first distant thunder on the horizon, then the rain begins, the storm draws near, passes overhead and moves away. Procedurally synthesised, not recorded.
The same recipe with another seed: the raindrops, the order of the birds or the path of the chords change; the rules and evidence level stay the same.
