ImPulsar4
ImPulsar4 uses the QS Regular Matrix, a 1970s algorithm for encoding four audio channels onto two, as an instrument of displacement. A quadraphonic recording is folded down to two channels, seeded with interference, then unfolded back to four; what returns sounds almost like the original, but subtly wrong. Spatial certainty is gone, and what should be here appears there.
