Accidents two: Sound projections

Description: Recording of Larry Austin's Accidents two: Sound projections. For piano and computer music. This work extends and substances the original compositional and real-time performance approach from an earlier work. There is an open form, invoking highly evolved improvisational formats and extends the musico-technical resources from the live electronics piece towards hypermedia and subsumes the actual sounds from the original work.

Acéré

Description: Recording of Alain Basso's Acéré. The intention was to create a piece about war. Different object sounds were recorded in the studio, to have a wider palette of percussion sounds. The idea is that these percussions gradually change. As in the repetition of a 'kata', a movement sequence in martial arts, the concentration becomes more intense and the sounds increasingly sharp, by playing on the harmonics they contain. To give a feeling of space to this movement, transformed soundscapes create an … 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

El Adios

Description: A very short but important piece. It was the last composition produced in our old studio (the one offered by the Di Tella Institute that you visited at CICMAT in 1974). The pointillistic piece and its editing is done exclusively by means of tape bonding and sounds from the Arpe 2600. Pozzati, in my opinion, is our best talent. He made his song as a farewell to the old studio which is now replaced by two NeXT machines. He is now one of the people working with the new programs at LISP, in use wit… 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.
