Fireworks Program note: Fireworks is for computer with synth sounds generated in Max8. It has a simple graphical user interface to play sounds live. It consists of four voices with sounds made out of sine, triangle, and sawtooth waveforms, as well as white noise. It was my first approach to compose with Max8. It started with a few repeated minimalistic patterns and gradually added more notes into the rhythmic patterns. Then, a very short white noise sound is generated with a random volumes ranging from 20 to 60 milliseconds to imitate an imagined sound of setting the fire fuse. Following that, it comes with multiple glissandos made out of 8-second pitch gliding sounds, which make a similar sound to my childhood experience of watching fireworks at a local temple ceremony.
