magic eye

magic eye is a Max for Live audio effect device for video-controlled granular synthesis. The brightness of the selected pixel in the 256x256 viewfinder controls where the next audio grain comes from: darker pixels create grains from earlier in the source audio file, and brighter pixels create grains from later.

As an audiovisual device, magic eye creates a tacit feedback loop between the user, the video, and the sound. The image reveals pathways for sonic improvisation which can be paused, reversed, and modulated in myriad ways.

Also included are 33 short, abstract video loops created by Joel Dunn AKA Marshall Applewhite / Junted / Cocky Balboa, so you can get started making weird sounds immediately.

shhh

shhh is a Max for Live audio effect device that plays back the quietest or loudest slice out of 4 stereo input sources, independently in the left and right channels, with a variable slice time for computing loudness.

shhh specializes in the real-time synthesis of otherworldly crackles, cuts and clicks, and musique concrète passages. Through its performance controls, the user can explore the chaotic, fluid boundary between their sound sources and a deterministic slice selection algorithm.
