Co[l]oto[mi]c[nal]

This piece is based on the colotomic structure of Ladrang Wilujeng. Ladrang Wilujeng is a traditional gamelan piece, and colotomic is a group of instruments within the gamelan set that has the function of determining structure and style. In this piece, I analyze the spectra of each instrument in the colotomic pattern of Ladrang Wilujeng. Based on the analysis of the spectra, I then built this piece, in particular, I applied these spectra in the harmony part of this piece. So, colotomic pattern = timbre pattern, timbre → spectral analysis to get some frequencies that form the timbre of the colotomic instruments, and from the spectral analysis of the timbre of the colotomic
instruments in Ladrang Wilujeng, this piece (including micro-intervals) was built. It is a LIMINAL, between harmony and timbre.
