The project that I have decided to write about is Liquid Percussion, by TRUMPIN or Gerhard Trimpin.
It is an acoustic sculpture that creates music based on the amount of rain. The water droplets will then fall and strike the various unique instrument at the bottom. The Artist has always been been very passionate about blending electronics, art and music together and this piece is no exception. I don’t think any specific algorithms are used in the creation of this project, since most of it is dependent on nature and rainfall. What really impresses me about this work is how its actually able to create such complex and interesting melodies and rhythms from this sculpture. You can see more of his work from the link below.
