#lang scribble/manual @(require (for-label racket)) @title{(latoocarfian-c rate freq a b c d xi yi)} (latoocarfian-l rate freq a b c d xi yi) (latoocarfian-n rate freq a b c d xi yi) This is a function given in Clifford Pickover's book Chaos in Wonderland, pg 26. The function has four parameters a, b, c, and d. The function is: xnew = sin(y * b) + c * sin(x * b); ynew = sin(x * a) + d * sin(y * a); x = xnew; y = ynew; output = x; According to Pickover, parameters a and b should be in the range from -3 to +3, and parameters c and d should be in the range from 0.5 to 1.5. The function can, depending on the parameters given, give continuous chaotic output, converge to a single value (silence) or oscillate in a cycle (tone). This UGen is experimental and not optimized currently, so is rather hoggish of CPU. Default initial parameters. @racketblock[ (let ((x (mouse-x kr 20 sample-rate 0 0.1))) (audition (out 0 (mul (latoocarfian-c ar x 1 3 0.5 0.5 0.5 0.5) 0.2)))) ] randomly modulate all parameters. @racketblock[ (audition (out 0 (mul (latoocarfian-c ar (fdiv sample-rate 4) (mul-add (lf-noise2 kr 2) 1.5 1.5) (mul-add (lf-noise2 kr 2) 1.5 1.5) (mul-add (lf-noise2 kr 2) 0.5 1.5) (mul-add (lf-noise2 kr 2) 0.5 1.5) 0.5 0.5) 0.2))) ]
