• Consemble is an original, web-based Open Compositions venture launched by Chameleon Lectra on the 14th July 2007. It is ongoing.
• A Consemble is a collection of sounds, assembled by a group of people, which are then played using random methods to create an everchanging, digital listening experience.
• YOU are invited to listen to the current Open Consemble Consemble: K and then email your own sounds - the ones you think ought to be included - to build this web-based, indeterminate PMusic composition.
˜
•
Every
contributor will be credited and the work will be available,
for free, from this website. Anyone may take part -
amateurs, professional composers, sound artists, non-musicians
etc. - there is no age limit.
•
From
2007 there have been an annual series of project licences
(Consemble: A, Consemble:
F etc.) - each with its own brief and specifications
to guide you; the intention however is to be broad,
welcoming and inclusive. Consemble can be understood
as a sound art or music project.
•
Every
person's contribution is equally important - each sound
adds to, and changes the direction of, the Consemble. All participants get an online credit and link to website where appropriate.
Visit the Consemble licence pages for details of submission.
please email your contribution(s) and any questions to:
consemble@blueyonder.co.uk.
Please
bear in mind that this work will be available for free
to all, including children (so no pornographic sounds
etc.)
and no copyrighted material—just
your own music or sounds.
