physical²model
is an electroacoustic installation and instrument inspired by physical modelling synthesis.
It consists of a transducer and a movable contact microphone mounted on a metal sheet. The
sound
captured by
the contact microphone is processed using Karplus-Strong synthesis and fed back to the
transducer,
effectively making the vibrational modes of the metal plate audible.
The result is a complex, generative soundscape composed of the overtones of the plate's
natural
frequencies.
physical²model also has an electrical monochord controller to determine the specific pitch
of the
Karplus-Strong synthesis, this extra control makes it a two player instrument which also
works as an
installation (0-1 players).
p!
is a VST effect plugin which alters sounds in three dimensions. It uses a combination of pitch-shifting and bit-crushing to add textures and harmonics to the input sound.

orgulje
is a digital organ built using web technologies. It is played using the keyboard and is based on Arvo Pärt's Tinntinabuli compositional technique.
Wittgenstein vs. Wittgenstein
is a Markov model based on the early vs. late philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein.
The text is generated using his two main works: the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus and the Philosophical Investigations.
Users can type two or more words and then the model will generate a (at this stage nonsensical) text based on the input.
