About TXT U LTR

 

in association with RTÉ lyric fm

The basic mapping of text-to-melody was created by enumerating the notes of the theme in lyric’s jingle (1, 2, 3, …) and the key-to-character mapping used in mobile phones (a=2, b=22, c=222, d=3, etc). The resulting melodies where then assembled by our algorithms and finally rendered as a unique piece of orchestrated music.
In addition to the orchestral parts we made field recordings in lyric’s offices and studios, capturing the everyday sounds and acoustic atmosphere of life and work in the radio station. The recordings where then edited and assembled into an electroacoustic soundscape. We also assembled all lyric’s jingles and played them in real-time on the Kakaphonizer.
Finally a group of dancers from Daghdha Dance Company worked with us, creating the choreography for the work.
