The sounds I made for this composition were generated via computer programs. The short samples were created by plotting a math function, say BesselJ0 function over some range, doing a few modifications, then taking the Fourier Transform, which makes a periodic function (waveform) that provides me with a specific tamber. The longer samples were all created with a program that prints sine waves at increasing frequency over time. Once the frequency is over 22.5kHz, aliasing occurs, which causes the pitch at first to go down, then start behaving erratically. By making various modifications to the program, I was able to obtain different sequences of sounds (some quite painful to listen to). Enjoy.

After about 20 seconds there is no more listening to this with headphones.
