ChainSynth (alpha.chainsynth.app) is the first step in the creation of a generative audio-visual synthesizer working with real-time blockchain data.
🚧 This project is under progress, and this repo is subject to frequent change.
ChainSynth currently is a very early version of a generative audio-visual synthesizer that works with real-time blockchain data. It currently works only with the Polkadot relay chain data.
It updates the generated audio at every finalized block as explained below.
- Modulo of the block hash determines the root note and the scale, from the following set:
- C Lydian
- F Major
- D Major
- G Major
- A Major
- G Whole-Tone
- Number of events in the block defines the speed of the succession of the melody notes.
- Number of extrinsics defines the depth of reverb applied to the melody.
git clone https://github.com/helikon-labs/chainsynth.git
cd chainsynth
npm install
npm run dev
ChainSynth should be running at localhost:8080.
