A sound is slowly destroyed through the process of being played. This is a demonstration of one of the patches built for a project I'm working on called the Book of Knowledge of Impractical Musical Devices, which details three experimental interfaces designed in PD. This one is for an instrument called "Everything you love will one day be taken from you".
Enjoy!

@amazingrolo nice, kinda like basinksy's disintegration loops.. but digital

@amazingrolo Very interesting, thanks. I'd be interested in seeing what's going on in the patch if that's something you wouldn't mind sharing.

I definitely don't mind sharing. Here's the code that I used to make the video:

The concept is designed for a standalone instrument, which runs on a Bela board in a custom made container. The code for that is necessarily slightly different, but I'll post that too when the project is ready to be shown to the world.

@yannseznec Thank you very much for sharing this, I'd been on the lookout for some interesting methods of digital degradation and I'll be definitely studying you patch.

Love the sound, love everything around it, great concept
