Music made with FF

Okay, so you can't upload an MP3 file here...

Cool! I need to try out feeding that thingie a mandelbrot

very cool, guys. i tried it out, also. weird stuff

i actually had a similar idea a few years ago and tried to get my brother to program it, but he was too busy with other stuff. mine was a bit different, but i'm glad to see someone doing this

Another one with some rhythm elements added.

hehe, it's even in 4/4 time, threedee

try the lines and curves feature. it gives the best results i've gotten so far. but, i'm noticing a drawback to this program the more i use it; there is a certain similarity to almost all of these. they just sort of start sounding very similar one to the next after a while. so, i'm probably not going to compose the next overture with any of these

ThreeDee, you could become a famous modern composer

There is another little freeware program called RGB Music Lab that you may want to check out as well...

ah, that's why i couldnt find a download for it. thanks, sky

Yes, since the sounds all done with the sine curve by additive synthesis, they have the tendency to start sounding similar after a while. But you can apparently also load a different waveform into the program (haven't tried it yet). Probably this program is more useful for creating some off-the-wall individual sounds that you can then use in some other program.

There seems to be plenty of other choices of image-to-audio, most of them not exactly freeware.

Mainly I thought it is an interesting idea to use FF to generate the image that you use to generate the sound. Especially since you get such a direct relationship with the image and the resulting sound when you do it this way. And the idea of generating images with the reulting sound in mind gives you a whole different perspective.
