Prog. notes: written with the program 'Segmod' developed by Luc Döbereiner & Martin Lorenz
Following to the characteristics that Segmod offers, which are few and quite limited in function compared to commonly used applications for creating sounds, accordingly challenging, this piece is aimed to reduce the musical elements as much as possible, and to focus on rhythmic structures that pulses and their variations provide. ACToolbox is used to generate a pattern, and numbers are generated according to that. Pulse wave is the main oscillator, with its frequency between minimum 1hz to maximum 100 Hz varied by the configured pattern, and only in few cases there are other types of waveforms included, and used in the part that varies its timbre. Making the piece into stereo was essential as the rhythmic structure and its variation not only happen in musical space, but also between two different channels.
