The objective of this final project was to create an instrument and performance based off all of our previous classes and to that end with my partner Dylan we created launchpads like this guy:
Mine ended up looking like this at first:
Just a bunch of pushbuttons cobbled together with this patcher to run it (thanks for helping me out, Sean):
And then I upgraded to this bad boy:
A crew of 12 were supposed to spit samples, and bust rhymes–slowly but surely though the buttons dwindled down to 6–each one dying a horrible horrible fiery melted death. So with 6 left me n dylan busted out the launchpads and got to working…until we figured it would be too hard to mix a track anyway–so we decided to build the track in logic–images of the famous composition have been lost to time, but one of the first iterations was found among the decrepit floppy disks. Listen below here–
A combo Daft Punk, Justice, Justin Bieber, Carly Rae Jepsen, Drake, Big Shaq and Stephen Hawking–its a masterpiece for the ages.
Here it is in action. Prepare to have your mind blown:
