COUNTERSOUL is a real-time, generative music & visual performance of the Bitcoin blockchain. Its development began in late 2021, and completed in January 2023 and is the first generative musical composition inscribed on Bitcoin.
COUNTERSOUL brings the fundamentals of the Bitcoin blockchain into a generative (forever different and changing) musical system. COUNTERSOUL's algorithmic base continually generates all aspects of music and visual elements in real time based on the current block height number of the Bitcoin blockchain as it's sole input.
The code uses a single block height API call to drive the entire work, which remains easily interchangable by the user to ensure the work remains operational forever. The block height value is converted to a Hex color code and is used to determine the main colour featured in the work at any time.
Blocks are continually added to the bitcoin blockchain, so COUNTERSOUL evolves as this proceeds. The frequency of changes to the block height is unpredictable, but on average a block is added approximately every 10 minutes. In addition, COUNTERSOUL responds in different ways to special block height numbers and events such as the mining difficulty adjustments, halvenings etc. and is programmed to continue doing this into the future.
The sounds produced in COUNTERSOUL are custom virtual synthesizers, which are passed through effects for additional spaciousness and ambience, utilizing delays (echoes) and reverberation which are built from scratch in the code.
When the work first loads it is silent, clicking anywhere on the screen (or pressing 'm') will start (or pause) the music.
- Press 'f' to toggle full screen.
- Press 'p' for a .png screenshot (browser may ask for permissions).
- Press 'h' to pause the visuals.
