7 excerpts from "visual haïku"

Description: Recording of Warren Burt's 7 excerpts from "visual haïku". "Visual Haiku" was a set of 16 computer pieces made for Robert Randall's "Visual Haiku" project in 1994. All the music was made on various computer systems using software such as Band-in-a-Box, Sound Globs, M, Cool Edit and so on. Each of the "Visual Haiku" used algorithmic processes to assemble music which loudly and proudly proclaimed bad taste and slavish obeisance to commercial musical models, in keeping with the neo-Warholian aes… more

Acetone

Description: Recording of Alain Basso's Acetone. It was created essentially from sounds representative of landscapes and festivities in Haute-Savoie, this piece explores the limits of the possibilities of sound mutation. The idea is to exaggerate certain acoustic characteristics, to better control the expressiveness of these sound objects, but without losing their original nature. Thus, the listener is projected into a lyrical world, while measuring the gap that separates him from real sources that can ofte… more

The afterbirth of apollo

Description: Recording of Eric Lyon's The afterbirth of appollo. This work is for electronics and has a lot of noise elements. The synthetic sounds are harsh and posses an analog sound. This sound feels continuous and even though there is movement in the sound, the construction continues to stay the same. There is a true representation of electronic sound in this work, instead of shying away from the noise, this work embraces it and explores the importance of balance and musical transitions.

Apocalypse was postponed due to lack of interest

Description: Recording of Juan Carlos Pampin's Apocalypse was postponed due to lack of interest. The title refers to an idea about the state of the art within the 19th century. Algorithms written with the COMMON LISP language controlled the rhythms and production of synthesis sounds to create different textures and densities. Sound generation techniques include: Karplus-Strong Modeled Attack, Additive Synthesis Generated Body and Filtered Noise Drop. The structure of the work is that of a continuous transfo… more

Archée

Description: Recording of Patrick Lenfant's Archée. The main material in this work is fire, an "electonic" fire made from exclusively analog wave generators. The second material is "time" and is an essential part of the work. This piece belongs to a collection of works the composer calls his "electronic sound paintings" which consist of pieces that suggest to the listener an image of the chosen model by stylizing it using electronic sources.

Ascent

Description: Recording of Andrew Lewis' Ascent. For electronics. This process was initiated by the nature of the opening sounds of the piece, which were the first to be developed. Ascent moves freely across a spectrum of musical approaches, from the purely abstract to the more cinematic: at one extreme, the exploration of texture and of static pitch structures dominates; in the middle ground, evocations of irregular rock formations, undulating topography and large geological masses are prevalent; while at … more

Bamboo, Silk and Stone

Description: Recording of Barry Truax's Bamboo, Silk and Stone. This is a collabrative work with Barry Truax, who realized the tape, and Randy Raine-Reusch who performed the source material for the tape (on the balinese suling gambuh, the Chinese guzheng, the Korean hun or ocarina, gongs and tam-tam) and who composed the live accompaniment which he plays on the first three of those instruments. The tape part is mostly improvisations gestures used by the performer. The work was realized using the composer's … more

Beautiful Numbers

Description: Recording of Karl Friedrick Gerber's Beautiful Numbers. The work is a result of the composers experiments with algorithmic composition written with the "GFA Basic" language. The real-time improvisation program is controlled or "conducted" by altering numbers of preselected so called discrete vectors. These vectors represent states in the space of sequences formed by counting integer values in cycles. Various midi events are generated to control the sound modules. The piece was concerned for dan… more

Best wishes from the lilac grove

Description: Recording of Lars Gunnar Bodin's Best wishes from the lilac grove. For electronics. In Swedish it means a rather tiny grove, more like an outdoor room (without a roof) where the lilac shrubbery form the walls.

Boca de Barra

Description: Recording of Juan Reyes' Boca de Barra. The sound events of the piece are based on visual images. These images were produced by elements and objects of a natural landscape. When the viewer concentrates on a particular event, the system destabilizes and events, like images in an exhibition, begin to arrive. La Bocca de la Barra is a geographical beach in the Caribbean, where salty sea water mixes with fresh water from the swamps and, where vegetables become seaweed, frogs become fish, and lobste… more

Braindrops

Description: Recording of Werner Cee's Braindrops. This work is an interactive, audio-visual performance. The installation makes spatial-temporal patterns of the impact of raindrops falling on various sound-making surfaces, creating a complex multitude of generated sound and light structures. Various psycho-physiological signals of the subject are measured using sensors and correlated. Changes in the individual's psycho-physical state are thereby fed back into the audio-visual event itself (biofeedback).

Clothed in the Soft Horizon

Description: Recording of Mathew Adkins' Clothed in the Soft Horizon. The work presents a communitive interaction between electronically built sounds and the original unprocessed sounds, which are modelled after water droplets and the motion of a wave that builds, crashes, and breaks. This use of processed and unprocessed sound is the overall bas of the work and also the Spectro morphological design of many of the individual sounds. Overall, the work is both a physical representation of the flow and motion … more

The tape part was produced at Keele University studios on a Composers’ Desktop Project system. Most of its material consists of two main sources - a recording of ice cubes falling into a glass of water and a blow-torch - which were manipulated and processed in order to create diverse textures as well as gestural material. In spite of its remote timbral origin, the tape inter… more
