David Nadeau - The pendulum grazes the headphone jack of the guitar amplifier

from Weird Divinations by various

about

J'ai branché un microphone de contact au bout de la corde d'un pendule divinatoire que je tenais par-dessus un amplificateur de guitare, de sorte que le pendule vibrait au contact des parois internes de la prise du casque d’écoute. De légers mouvements des doigts altéraient les vibrations sonores. La hauteur a ensuite été modifiée de façon à obtenir cinq versions plus graves de la piste originelle, d’un intervalle de huit demi-tons entre chaque. Les six pistes ont ensuite été superposées et mixées ensemble.

I plugged a contact microphone at the end of the rope of a divinatory pendulum that I held over a guitar amplifier, so that the pendulum vibrated in contact with the inner walls of the headphone jack. Slight movements of the fingers altered the sound vibrations. The pitch was then changed to five lower versions of the original track, with an interval of eight semitones between each. The six tracks were then superimposed and mixed together.
