Absolutely. Crazy stuff.
I listen to every music genre and as many pioneering musicians as I can since I’m a child, and sometimes I stick to an artist/genre for a few years and am usually done with it ; but Autechre is one of the few artists I consistently come back to since I first listened to them in 2006.
Now I’m into VCV Rack, I try things with sequencers to generate this rhythmical, ever-evolving abstract feeling ;
And I randomly learned today that one of my fav Autechre tracks - Fold4,Wrap5 - was using Risset rhythms. I stumbled upon a research paper ; unfortunately my math is very poor. I understand roughly how it’s done and what it does, but my take would simply a saw LFO on one sequencer, and the inverted saw on another, and it would be a musical disaster. So I kinda want to be able to understand what this paper says.

A video replicating the rhythm part in SuperCollider :
So I might take math lessons, and not only for Risset rhythms, I feel constantly sweating while trying to intuitively replicating the kind of music made by people with a deep understanding of math. Over time I have in mind a very basic pseudo-algorhithm of the workflow I want, and I think I’m 50% done, but for the rest, I fear I have to dig deeper into logic first, then into maths to use better curves, more ‘organic’ movement and not just lfos’ and repeating CV feeds.
Anyway, I have consulted Google to see if somebody implemented Risset rhythms in VCV, and it happens that you are indeed working on a module : let’s say I am very, very interested by this project
