Fractal Mobiles for Tape and Orchestra
Browse Works
Additional Information
The tape part consists of nine segments generated by a fractal algorithm which collectively form a musical voice within the orchestra.
The recursive algorithm is NewX=Y-SquareRoot(BX-C); NewY=A-X; X=NewX; Y=NewY. The choice of opening values for A, B and C significantly affects the character of the output from the program.
First performed in 1990 by the University of Leeds Orchestra conducted by the composer.
