I wanted to share this one with everybody, it’s my final project for my New Media Storytelling class at the Media Lab.

HYDROPHOBE
HYDROPHOBE by mainsequence
I finished my submission for the 2009 RPM Challenge last night. Clocking in at 37:27–one track, ten sections–this is my first experiment with purely ambient “music”. Each section starts with a raw recorded sound that then gets manipulated beyond recognition, hopefully in a mostly pleasant way. […]

RANDOM COLOR BUBBLES

BUILD DAY
It’s a gray Saturday morning and the MIT campus is dead. Empty courtyards testify that most students are either sleeping off last night’s fun, or still attached to a screen after an all-night computer programming session. Some are up, however, and I’m headed to meet them at Build […] -
