The ‘series’ of experiments continues, this time utilizing the Defective Records software version of the ‘Klee’ sequencer under external generative influences.

“…In fact, programming a Klee sequence is an exercise in the unpredictable. The programmingpots interact with each other according to the Klee pattern driving them, and the Klee patternitself is as instantly changeable as programming a pot. Some changes will shift your Kleesequence in a slightly different direction, while some changes may shift the flow of things onehundred eighty degrees. In fact, the Klee gets its name from this concept. When the first modelwas designed, programming it was compared to molding a sculpture out of very loose clay. Some time after that statement, Romeo Fahl built a version of the first Klee model, and named it the Klee (which is pronounced ‘clay’) both in recognition of the “loose clay” description and in honor of the artist Paul Klee, whose work often, somehow, reflects the abstract nature ofprogramming a Klee sequencer and many of the sequences it’s been known to produce.”

Various percussion sounds include Applied Acoustics Systems ‘Chromaphone’ and the inspired sound designs of Simon Stockhausen’s ‘Cardinals’.
