Pot-Jar by parkellipsen
These percussion études are made from only two sounds, the water jar in an office space I tend to frequent, and a terracotta pot I found in a garden store (well, and some birds that can be heard in the background).
The focus is on exploring the possibilities of the Markov chain learning algorithm that's found in Mégra.
The timekeeper version is easier to listen to, the one without is more interesting (or challenging).
There's video versions where the coding process can be observed:
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQTztSVZvKA (timekeeper)
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXYv-TMplLo (no timekeeper)
Created with free and open-source software.
Mégra can be found here: https://github.com/the-drunk-coder/megra.rs
The code for the pieces can be found here:

Thank you for listening!
