Natural Music - The Creek

The Creek : Imagine... a clear forest and you´re dozing at the banks of small river. Listen to the sound of the water rippling through the stones and let yourself get carried away ... Images like that I had in mind creating the Natural Music. The Forest Lord picture may help you to tune in. : The Fractal is a beautiful sample of Jim´s Mandel images. If he is listening maybe he can find the parameters, it´s an old one. : It strikes me how close the music is to the basic fractal. Enjoy the numberless variations and let yourself get carried away. ; https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7evkupcculvwp36/AAAsW97o7zkswB0XZfog0Amga?dl=0 ; Albrecht

"I have another more lively version, maybe later." This is to inform you that this version now is onlinw. The main difference is the fractal rhythm which now has 1/16 Triplet as shifting base Albrecht

Natual Music - Summer Breeze

Natural Music - Summer Breeze ; Digital Music with a human touch - Even if you dont like Fractal Music this one will possibly change your mind I think. Correct me if Im wrong. The Natural Music algorithm sticks much closer to the basic fractal image and a harmonic beautiful image will generate a similar listening experience. With one small adjustment the converting algorithm is the same as yesterday. I have another more lively version, maybe later. ; https://www.dropbox.com/sh/d67aze72i17ezfm/AACkfd74LknqQMuoOiCAU88ga?dl=0 ; The mp3 is 320kb, high quality, dual channel. For conversion from midi the Weeds GM3 soundfont is used, which is the best one available. ; Albrecht

Fwd: Natural Music

Albrecht is back but having trouble posting, so I am helping him out. Tim ======================== HI, Having returned from my 2 months trip I have to face the fact that in the meantime not a single new fractal has been presented, so the forum has to be considered finalized. but on the other hand I managed on earlier occasions to reanimate the dead man. : So let´s give it one more try, I have something to contribute to lighten the task. The multifractal project is about finished successfully and the question is what to do next - : It is generally accepted that fractals play an important part in our universe and the idea that something as complex as the mandelbrot has not a certain task is out of the question. If you look around yourself in a natural surrounding not killed by human dirt you detect that the components to a high degree are fractal, the biology and even more the inanimate parts of nature - water, air, earth, fire and the like. : Of course these components produce sounds - maybe inspiring or exciting. Listen to wind, raindrops or sounds of the sea which quite often are used to enhance or play a part in music. They may contain melodical or rhythmical elements which change if you´re listening for some time. : I´m trying to produce music consisting of similar elemnts with no predefined melody or rhythm which nevertheless urges you to listen, detect them and dive into the acoustical experience. Listening again and again you may detect different components so you have the feeling that it is not the same music anymore and want to listen again. : Especially produced multifractal images with numerous different shapes and colors are converted into sound using the RGB values of single pixels as source. A square IFS is used for scanning. An enhanced version of my fractal rhythm supplies the musical progress. It is a shifting rhythm that NEVER repeats, so the "melodical" elements also change. A sophisticated formation makes it possible that every voice can have any pitch or length. : The music is generated by an automatic algorithm which does not reqire any manual input. The final result definetely is fractal music: NATURAL MUSIC not to be confounded with nature music. The scale is "E"- Minor Pentatonic, measures 1/1 16 triplets. The Image is a manowar image produced with the latest MFR14 patch, both included in the link. ; https://www.dropbox.com/sh/f8dfjd11uqs7o1a/AAC2t9_rUYrTPSTEC3oG6XZ5a?dl=0 ; The music is an unedited first version, more advanced music will follow if there is some feedback ; Albrecht Niekamp

Hi Richard, > ./xfractint @test1.par/VsionOfaDistantSea I found how to get this to work without dumping. It is looking for the formula file where Jim specified his local file. In the DOS verison this does not cause a problem. But in xfractint it needed to be commented out. VsionOfaDistantSea { ; time=0:03:15.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula ; formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=SliceJulibrot5 center-mag=+0.015260972\ ... After running this command for several hours it only produces the top left portion of the image. Doing several runs, it never gets past this point. I uploaded the image so it can be seen. This same command works to produce 4800x3600 when generating Poachers_Afoot which generated in 36 seconds. ./xfractint -disk -geometry 4800x3600 batch=yes savename=work/test.gif "@test1.par/VsionOfaDistantSea" http://www.interocitors.com/tmp/test.gif My sstools.ini is below which might help [xfractint] inside=0 map=maps/default.map ifsfile=ifs/fractint.ifs parmfile=pars/fractint.par lfile=lsystem/fractint.l formulafile=formulas/fractint.frm autokeyname=key/auto.key ;filename=./work savename=./work printfile=./work workdir=./work tempdir=./work savetime=60 ;video=f3 exitnoask=yes float=yes ;fpu=387 ;curdir=yes ;printer=pa orgfrmdir=./ORGFORM Roger

Fractal fans: I'm still here, but I have received no e-mails from the list in a couple weeks. This is a test to see if the list is still alive and if I'm still subscribed. Jim M
