Inspiration |
This work was inspired by the cosmological theory of inflation. It posits the the space expanded exponentially after the Big Bang and was first developed by Alan Guth at Cornell University in 1979. It was later shown, that most inflation models lead to multiverses, in which the space itself is broken into bubble universes with their own physical properties. So far, experiments seem to confirm the predictions of the inflation theory, thus making it more likely that we live in a multiverse!

Audio |
The output from the Director is fed directly to the audio synthesis software SuperCollider using an Open Sound Control interface. The population value is used to choose a tone from the major scale. The variable parameters are:
01 - Degree in the scale 02 -Duration 03 - Amplitude The fixed parameters (set for a specific work) are: 01 - Channel 02 - Degree offset Multiple Realities use three agents. A script generates tones resembling a string synthesizer with chorus effects. Agents operating below the first bifurcation (r»3.0) are muted to prevent distracting continuous sounds. |
Visuals |
The outputs from the Director are used to control three groups elements, each containing a few hundred copies of a geometric primitive. The groups are controlled by adjusting the distance of each element from the original position, scale of each element, and the distance among elements of the same group.
Dynamic parameters are: 01 - Distribution perturbation 02 - Distribution scale 03 - Object scale Random parameters are: 01 - Color |
