Pulsar synthesis

What is Pulsar Synthesis?
 Pulsar synthesis (PS) is a method of electronic music synthesis based on the generation of trains of sonic particles. PS can produce either rhythms or tones as it criss‐crosses perceptual time spans. The basic method generates sounds similar to vintage electronic music sonorities, with several important enhancements. The advanced method combines multiple pulsar trains and convolution with sampled sounds. Together with Alberto de Campo, the author has designed a program for pulsar synthesis called PulsarGenerator. Applications of pulsar synthesis in compositions by the author are noted.

My first time using it:
At first I was having difficulties just trying to get everything to work, or play in general. But after just playing around I was able to start making stuff. The initial sound I created sounded a little to much of a headache for me to bear. So I tried making sounds with different frequencies. So I ended up creating something that sounds a bit calmer then my initial run through.
