Liner notes by Kim Cascone, January 17 2003:
The Stone Cast, The Ripple Made.
I've always found creating waveforms using time-domain methods much more interesting than the typical FFT based methods. While I was working for Staccato Systems, I came across a PC application called Wigout developed by Arun Chandra. Wigout allows one to create waveforms by transforming 'segments' in time. The docs at the website will explain all this in more detail.
After speaking with Tad Turner about the idea of implementing Wigout in Max/MSP he developed a patch that incorporates Wigout's functionality plus some extra features. After playing around with Tad's patch for a short while I was able to create some very unique sounds and thought that his patch could become the basis for a very cool list project.
Using Wigout (Mac or PC) or the samples found at the .microsound server create a new work no longer than 6 minutes in length. You may abuse, process, mangle, fuck up, destroy, fold, bend, and/or mutilate the Wigout soundfiles with any sound application you want to use. The only wish is that the flavor of the Wigout waveforms is retained somehow.
