Circuits via Arduino and Max/MSP

I come and go from Arduino (and Max/MSP) at a frustrating rate. On a given year I’ll find myself dipping my toes in for some inspiration or hoping to realise an idea I’ve had hanging around for awhile. Often I’ll get frustrated with my present lack of knowledge (and persistence) and shuffle away with an easier host of options at hand.

I think that the tide has begun to turn lately though. I’ve got lots of ideas at the moment that I don’t think can be realised any other way. So into the dark, beguiling terrain of Arduino and Max/MSP I venture once again.

First stop: let’s use some circuitry to communicate with Arduino and control parameters of scaled cycle~ objects in Max/MSP. It’s basic and crude, but it’s a start.

About tristanlouthrobins

Tristan Louth-Robins is an Adelaide based sound artist working in areas of electro-acoustic music and new media art. His works utilise assorted media and forms of technology to realise concepts and ideas associated with sound and its signification in various contexts. Underpinning his concert works and installations is the concept of focused listening and a heightened awareness of sound. Works are predominantly minimalist in nature, eshewing distractive elements in favour of simple systems and processes which draw the listener's attention to the inherent detail of a given work. Tristan Louth-Robins has performed and exhibited his work both locally and interstate at various galleries and conferences. Since 2005 he has collaborated with new media artists (Linda Lou Murphy), sound artists (Jason Sweeney, Sebastian Tomczak) and artist collectives (SHOOT, Glitch, Milkcrate.) In 2006 and 2007 he directed the highly successful experimental music series Tyndall Assembly, which showcased emerging composers and sound artists, whilst also presenting important historical works. He is currently completing a Master of Music (part-time) at the Elder Conservatorium, where he also teaches and tutors within his faculty E.M.U.
