IMPROVBUDDY

Improvbuddy is an instrument that can’t be controlled. It’s a circuit one has to listen constantly to play (with) it. Improvbuddy generates and synthesizes sounds through random algorithms when it’s triggered by a hit -through piezos and envelope followers.

first started as a Puredata patch with a single trigger, then migrated the idea to SuperCollider with 3 triggers and a different approach on randomization algorithms and interface for further experimentation.
