Twittercore - Twitter Generated Breakcore

Components

Description

Max/MSP patch that generates "Breakcore" style music using messages from the Twitter Microblogging Service. The patch pulls a message from the twitter public timeline, uses summed ASCII values per word to choose a place to loop in the sample, and then plays the loop while using Text To Speech to broadcast the twitter message. Loop ad naseum.
