Perhaps you should contact CSOUND users. There is a technique called "granularity" that generates weird sounds by clustering minute pieces of elementary sound. ----- Original Message ----- From: David Jones <gnome@hawaii.rr.com> To: <fractint@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Sunday, November 10, 2002 9:05 PM Subject: [Fractint] RE: FOTD 05-11-02 (Creepy-Crawlies [5])
I'm sorry, not iterations, zooming. I'm envisioning a fractal music with zoom levels. You zoom in on a single note, and it is actually a fractal cluster of notes around the higher level note's pitch, and which would sound within the amount of time of the higher note. You can zoom in on individual notes of a cluster, too. The practical limit then becomes how short the note can be and still be heard.
As far as what order the notes of a cluster might be played, not sure. Maybe start with pitch nearest the higher-level note and go out from there?

Hmmm, so that sets a bottom size for the iterations.

It is estimated that notes played by an instrument cease to be recognizable below 1/10th of a second in duration. Anyhow they can be heard, but their pitches become difficult to discern.

I wasn't thinking in terms of frequency, more of duration.
