Discourse to Tone

This video is part of the Citation to Tone Project and highlights the first paragraph of a work by John Cayley. By engaging in a model of innovation through constraints similar to the Oulipo, we offer listeners a collection of experiments with the Arduino Mega to demonstrate translational powers of computer programming, sound, and electricity.
To hear the differences and similarities between citation styles and understand how code constraints offer innovative flows and patterns, consider listening to the Anderson to APA , Anderson to Chicago, Anderson to MLA, and the Random Tone Generator. On screen you'll hear and see the Ardunio as it processes each letter into a tonal value. Because the text is inserted directly into the Arduino sketch, the position of the text within the code enables much longer strings of information to be processed.
