Wind project manipulates nature into sound synthesis

Craft & Design Music

The “Wind” project is a real-time digital sonification by Damian Stewart that uses wind to generate musical compositions in real-time. The project was built with a consumer quality DV camera, tripod, and a custom software application that feeds raw data to a Pure Data patch that applies it to an array of oscillators tuned to a pentatonic scale. Interesting use of nature as an input and the resulting sound is pretty soothing.
