Indexical is pleased to present a conversation with computer musician and music software developer Wayne Jackson (aka Later Days). Jackson’s fascination with computer music and emergent systems spans four decades and has been critical to both his artistic life and professional career. With a strong homebrew DIY aesthetic Wayne has created a wide palette of audio and visual softsynths which exploit the genetic algorithm for augmented creativity, and uses only these in performance and composition. He founded the experimental music festival Woodstockhausen in 1998 and continued to run it annually until 2003.
In this conversation, Jackson discusses their introduction to electronic music, development of algorithmic music systems, and the creation of Woodstockhausen.
