Download Compositional Application of a Chaotic Dynamical System for the Synthesis of Sounds
The paper presents a review of compositional application developed in the last years using a chaotic dynamical system in different sound synthesis processes. The use of chaotic dynamical systems in computer music has been a widespread practice for some time now. The experimentation presented in this work shows the use of a specific chaotic system: the Chua’s oscillator, within different sound synthesis methods. A family of new musical instruments has been developed exploiting the potential offered by the use of this chaotic system to produce complex timbres and sounds. The instruments have been used for the creation of musical pieces and for the realization of live electronics performances.
