Music and Data Convergence: A Call for Creators

The intersection of music and data offers a realm of boundless possibilities. Both fields rely on precise symbols to convey information, creating a parallel between musical notes and data records. Just as performers and listeners immerse themselves in the musical experience, data enthusiasts observe and record the ever-evolving world of information. In this context, stages and instruments become the equivalent of facts and observations, bridging the gap between music and data.

While music and data aren't identical systems, music can be seen as a unique way to represent data. It's not just about recording and playing notes; it's about reimagining music from a data perspective. Our goal is to unlock infinite possibilities, sparking creativity at the intersection of data and music.

Open Call: Crafting Perfection with the Fibonacci Sequence

The Fibonacci sequence, a mesmerizing pattern found in nature and the arts, offers an exciting creative opportunity. Starting with 0 and 1, each number in the sequence is the sum of the two preceding numbers (1+1=2, 1+2=3, 2+3=5, and so on). This sequence often leads to the golden ratio (approximately 1.618), a cornerstone in creating aesthetically pleasing designs in art and architecture.

I invite artists, musicians, and visionaries of all levels to explore the potential of this sequence in crafting perfect sound art. Use the data series that represents perfection to create works of sonic wonder.

If this piques your interest, please share your artwork or ideas with us via email. We'd love to hear about your creative process and vision.

Selected works have the chance to be featured in our upcoming online exhibition.

Join us in the exploration of data and sound, as we redefine the boundaries of creativity at the nexus of music and information.

no, perfection isn't important.

Here's a detailed description of AFAIK the one pure Golden Section/Fibonacci piece of music.
https://brahms.ircam.fr/fr/analyses/Stria/ paper is in French but it translates here to English in one click.
John Chowning Stria, 1977. Done on the Yamaha GS-1, the first Chowning FM synth.


I think this is the version including a section Chowning took out on advice of Luciano Berio, who commissioned it along with other things.
it's been proposed it be recreated using soft instruments, and why not.

Or the one where intent is entirely known and documented.

The longest piece of music I ever recorded, we sought to apply hard limits and golden section was the notion.
except for a kind of snarky pop song ("Home From Work") which was the hook, it was absolutely free improvisation. It was only the lengths of vaguely described sections the numbers applied to, we should have peaks at golden section at these times. We were beyond high, smoking Persian in the studio, I think it takes being that high to do that where there are no pesky thoughts to distract from be here now. I doubt a tape exists from 1987, too difficult. It was supposed to get a finished mix and sent to be printed as a record for release. totally sane! I remember being thrilled with what we did. I don't remember if we cared if we achieved that goal or not. It was a brilliant pop song, even.
