This is a sketch of an experimental musical composition technique I've been developing. I discuss it at length in my upcoming book Fun Musical Ideas, the chapter called "Yaw". Essentially, we have sheet music that rotates as the play cursor combs over it, creating interesting textures as the horizontal component, time, shifts gradually into the vertical component, pitch, and vice versa.
For my initial illustrative example, I use the houndstooth pattern as music. The borders between black and white are what's played. The tiled pattern tilts back and forth, teetering ever more violently. It changes directions each time it attains a key orientation at which vertices of the houndstooth pattern align either vertically or horizontally or both (creating chords or mono-pitch rhythms).
The piece exhibits pitch circularity. The play cursor could not extend infinitely upwards and downwards or too much sound would be heard, plus the tiniest tilt would result in total cacophany. So the loudest sounds come from the center of the bar, and the extreme tops and bottoms are almost not even there insofar as the sounds they pick up are almost silent (the falloff follows the curve of a normal distribution).
