Presence of Presence
a self-referential generative system

Presences construct themselves,
reaching completion only when
the subject encounters
their own reflection—
their own presence—
within the surface of presence.

System 002. Pendulum

Each of the hang’s 20 notes has its own pendulum. Each hit adds momentum, making it swing wider; without playing, it gradually stops. The musician shapes the movement by adding impulses to specific notes, controlling the pendulums’ synchrony and amplitude.

The system does not represent presence. It executes it.

System 001. Thread Geometry

Each note is a point, arranged like on a hang. Consecutive notes connect with threads that fade over time. By choosing note transitions, the musician can draw shapes—stars, triangles, or cyclic webs—and build the melody’s geometry through playing.
