Who can add some melody-story to this minimal Reich and Fibonacci set of loops?

Hi Tonny,

Ive enjoyed your code and previous postings here very much, but I dont think
I can help here, though I will keep trying.

The problem is ME… I tend toward making music with a start/middle/end, and
a regular beat. That allows people to guess whats coming next and get
involved, mostly by dancing, I guess.

Your music is much more… random? chaotic? than mine, and I although I love
the sounds you produce, I just cant seem to be able to add to it, because I want
to make rythmic patterns, which mess up the music you are making.

I’ve tried adding all kinds of code/sounds to this piece, but I havent produced
anything I would be proud to put in front of you… I’m sorry about that.

Perhaps the best I can offer is some ambient background noise to fill
in between your music…

      control s, note: notes.tick, note_slide: (line 0, 0.1, steps: 2).look
      sleep (ring 1, 1, 1, 1, 0.5, 0.5, 1, 2).look
    end
    
  end
end

      s = synth :dark_ambience, note: :e3, sustain: 2, note_slide: 0.1, amp: 0.125
      
      control s, note: notes.tick, note_slide: (line 0, 0.1, steps: 2).look
      sleep (ring 1, 1, 1, 1, 0.5, 0.5, 1, 2).look
    end
    
  end
end

I hope someone on the forums can provide more than my meager
help.

Regards,

Eli…

EDIT: Perhaps this code by Chris might help?
