Inspiration

I'm normally not interested in solar punk, but the challenge really made my creativity flow and rack my brain as to what could fit within PR.

What it does

It's an animation loop made with Aseprite and music composed in Ableton.

How we built it

Aseprite - Pixel Art. Renoise - Recording. Elektron Model:Samples - All drums and samples. Elektron Digitone Synthesizer - Bell Arpeggios, bass and chords.

Challenges we ran into

Figuring out what worked from a pixel perspective.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Although I played around with generative music and ended up using a composition, I'm proud of being challenged.

What we learned

Art can be harder than sound design.

What's next for Neo San Juan

  1. Next is to keep exploring the chip and lo-fi ASCII aesthetic with a clearer goal in mind
  2. Begin introducing generative elements in music and art to the series.
