This project by Memeht Selim Akten creates morphs between two given audio samples. Below is a compilation of examples of this.

The transitions were really interesting to me. I could hear the “notes” or whatever sound elements slowly change qualities like length, timbre, pitch, and finally resolve to the second sound. There’s a lot of potential I can see here for creating music, as music I’ve made doesn’t really transition from one thing to another all that much. I wonder what morphs from two samples of music produced by the same person, with all their musical quirks and tendencies, would sound like. Still, as the artist said, it isn’t about creating “realistic” transitions, it’s about the novelty and potential for modification.
