The sound of chaos can be joyous! This electroacoustic miniature is an exercise that explores the edge of chaos, which is realized by two digital waveguides resonating against the Peter de Jong chaotic map. For this work, an embedded acoustic instrument was created with five pressure sensors and five potentiometers. As the performer changes the parameters to and fro, the sound romps back and forth between chaotic regimes and more tonal sounds. Long live chaos!
