Number five in my sequence of experiments with FM synthesis is a bit noisier than the previous entries which is typical of sounds produced by randomizing parameters. Most of these I leave by the wayside, or edit specific parameters to make them more usable. However, this sound endeared me with is dirty and gravely characteristics. It caused me to imagine some scientific device of the future capable of materializing products or replicating a potato in a manner of seconds. This is the sound of that hypothetical device.
Spontaneous Polymerization
This drone represents the fourth in my series of FM synthesis experiments. It has a variable high frequency buzz, not unlike a typical evenings chorus of cricket calls, and an underlying low frequency drone that that throbs gently throughout the duration of the audio. This selection was made from a pool of randomized sounds. It was edited out of the surrounding audio but not processed in any way other than the processing that was randomized within the instrument. 
This is the second in a series of FM synthesis experiments I am conducting with the X.FM instrument that is included as an example in MaxMSP. This sound was generated by randomizing the parameters in the instrument. I selected it because is has a nice artificial insectoid quality to it which is why I selected a photograph I took of a large dragonfly while camping at Nils Westdal’s bachelor party last September.
I created this bouncy reverberated sound with an FM synthesis virtual instrument called X.FM which is one of the example “patches” within the famous
