More Squiggly Lines
I realized that someone could use spectrograms to compose as well as recognize sounds. That is, with enough training, I could think of a sound (virtually any sound), then imagine what the picture of the sound must look like and draw it. It's like mastering an instrument: The Pickettheremin Musical Whiteboard.
With this in mind, I threw together a quick script so that I could point my webcam at a whiteboard, press a button on Lappidactus, then listen to the (...ahem) beautiful muzak [sic] produced.
Below is my first composition (both the sound and its spectrogram). It's called "Squiggly Lines I: John Cage Shooting a Laser Shotgun".
