about

Originally submitted to the conceptual netlabel Less Ego More Noise (lessegomorenoise.blogspot.com). And constructed using the following random methods:

1) Click www.random.org/dice/?num=1
The sum of the dice are the total number of tracks you have to compose for your album.
2) Click en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The title of the random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.
3) Click www.quotationspage.com/random.php
The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your album.
4) Click www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
For CC images, click www.flickr.com/commons/
Repeat step 1 to 4 until you get a satisfying result.
5) Start composing in a random but unusual way.
e.g. the first release [lemn001] was made by silent composing, meaning sound off, visual aids were used (spectrum analyzer and osciloscope).
6) Take a random book or magazine.
open it randomly, the last phrase of every third page from here on contains a track title.

My composition method and sources were:

1) Searched system partition for two largest files
2) Imported files into Audacity as raw data
3) Exported WAV files from Audacity
4) Played WAV files back randomised through EVPMaker (using 500 to 1000ms segments) and recorded the results in Audacity

Track duration was determined randomly (between 600 and 1200 secs), though weirdly both numbers were just over the 11 minute mark.

The track titles were taken from "The Pillars of the Earth" by Ken Follett. Strange how the first phrase fits the random cover image of wartime evacuation.

This was LEMN015
