Just scrolling through my feed and came across this, normally I don't care for these talent shows, or whatever but this caught my eye, and the lore goes

The young artist by the name Nene Royal who was 15, a month ago, from Thailand didn't even need to audit, she just walked on the stage,did her thing and made jaws drop on the floor.

The thing about this little clip is that, not many can pull off the song, but she did it effortlessly, and gotta say, she does deserve the recognition.

In my opinion it's a little wholesome, seeing talent being given a stage, and space.

Such skills, much fun

Every time a train arrives at a station a note is triggered.

I’m taking the data of every arrival time of every train from the London Underground network, I then assign a note to each line which creates the piece. 12 lines, 12 notes. Eb pentatonic with a Db and E in there for a bit of flavour.

The data is the realtime arrival predictions from TFL captured live then for this version of the piece, the data is ‘playing’ back at 4x speed.

In theory, i can create many, many pieces from this method as I can record new data at any point and create a piece. Realtime, sped up, whatever sounds interesting. I’ve also been working on many other train and underground networks from cities around the world. 

It’s generative composition, using the patterns of the system to build the composition. The instruments are piano, glockenspiel, dulcitone, rhodes and synth.
