—- for what it is worth, here is the prompt I used for this – I came up with this —-
Marchapril Week 0 “Grupo Madí”
Word Prompt: How do you know that time is passing?
Musical Prompt: Give your music an irregular shape.
Grupo Madí – a Buenos Aires art movement of the 1940s, focused on playing with traditional conventions of Western art. For instance, irregularly-shaped canvases.
https://youtu.be/1EwZXCpfvDg I did the recording for this on 09 Jan 2020 was on Day 281 in the ongoing 100 Day Project timeline. It was one of 7 pieces I started that day. I used the Redshrike synth iOS app by Icegear/Iceworks. My guess is that I did this in Audiobus and on an iPad, but I have no further notes.
I recorded & remixed this in Massapequa, NY for Blissville Electro-Magnetic Laboratories & Blister Pop Unlimited.
I took the artwork photography at Marjorie Post Park in Massapequa, NY on 15 Jan 2020.
