as a total beginer can you tell me what im supposed to do with that code? where does it go. something to do with Unity game engine? what else goes with it
I feel so frickin called out because I discovered polyrhythms like 2 days ago, and now with this, it feels like virtual riot is in a shady back alley like "hey kid. I heard you like polyrhythms..."
I realized that when that happens, you can count the spokes of the fan, use that as a denominator, and check the video playbar to figure out what fraction of the way through you are. For instance there are only two spots with a four-spoke fan, at 1:51 and 5:35, and those are exactly 1/4 and 3/4 of the way through. Try it with the five-spokes.
nah but it really feels like VR just said "lemme make a legendary prog house track for shits and giggles". i mean yo this track is something else. also that visualizer is fucken amazing bro
It's such a simple track too... simple percussion, same bassline and pads all the way through, messing with fx on the polyrhythm melody as needed And it sounds fantastic
Did you notice: The 3:43 transition you mentioned, where “two lines” are visible, is exactly at the halfway mark of the song. Furthermore, the 1:50 and 5:35 where “four lines” are visible are at the 1/4 and 3/4 marks. Intro and outro where “one line” is visible are at the 0/1 and 1/1 marks (note the denominator in the reduced fraction is the number of lines; also works for e.g. 1/3 and 2/3 at 2:30 and 5:00) An exercise left for the reader is to find out why this is the case.
wowww this is such a perfect way to visualize this track. noticing the patterns emerge in the audio and visuals at the same time is wild. hypnotic almost. looks really pretty too of course
that was the longest 7 minutes and 30 seconds of my life, but also the best 7 minutes and 30 seconds of my life tip: unfocus/blur your eyes and stare at the middle, you will see some crazy shit
I'd be curious to see these timestamps in chronological order. I can't find a way to visually do it, but just listing it out, it seems to go, 16-14-12, then divided by 2, 8-7-6, then goes to 2, then presumably repeats itself the opposite way. There's probably some sort of equal distribution of how often the time signature changes based on the symmetry and amount its changing by.

One of the hardest things with large data set is to find a report that hilights the important kpis and makes sense to the average human brain. The rotary visual makes it easier to count the segments and figure out which harmonic is represented. Very good. And my brain is numb.
@@elantris-2002What are the bins of a fourier transform? What is the units on each bin in isolation? If those bins were 1-by-1 added to a 60 bpm (or more likely 120), what would result?
This is awesome, I watched the original video from Virtual Riot a couple times and I always thought the visualization could've been much better/cooler. As soon as I saw the thumbnail to this video I knew that this is exactly what I wanted
@@jonathanmaybaum4167 for sure look up the 3 on 4 and learn to tap it its super sick youll find it all the time unintentionally afterwards cuz it technically shows up ever so slightly every time a triplet is played. I mean just listen to the “stereotypical” latin beat its like the first half of the 3:4 phrase repeated
Interestingly 3:4 is the ratio of pitches of a “perfect fourth” note interval (5 semitones apart on a keyboard), e.g. this is like playing C and F. The clean ratio is why this interval sounds so harmonic. The relationship between polyrhythms and chords is very interesting. Chords are just polyrhythms but so fast you can’t hear the beats
It would look basically the same, the difference would just be the curve would be inverted, with the outside of the circle moving faster than the inside, no?
@@warpspeedscp how? how does the high notes moving slower and being physically lower that low notes on the upper side (where the sound comes from) make more sense?
Video got me hypnotized. Told myself to watch this just once; I snapped out of it when the cops barged in for a welfare check coz I've been gone for a few days.
It’s so cool it’s like an auditory illusion. If you just listen you’ll hear notes on certain beats like a melody but if you close your eyes and focus your ears just right you can hear the scale just going up over and over.
nice work again :) what I think could be really nice, is if you somehow took into account the background effects like reverb maybe with varying blurr or the basetone in the background with varying the saturation of the render
3:20, something about the next several seconds is just such a bop. So satisfying and rhythmic to me, though I guess that could be said for the entire thing. These moments in particular though ✨
When the beat came in I immediately considered this is how I kind of "see" some Animal Collective songs. So much "random" that manages to exist with a bigger picture cohesion as multiple pulses phase around to meet in compliment of the driving main beat. Neato!
The effect at 1:50 is so amazing, I am wondering if he used a detune effect to shift the frequencies or if the pattern naturally creates this psycho-acoustic feeling of detuning.
