Prompt 701 of the Disquiet Junto had us break a piece of music into segments and fill the gaps with something new,

My contribution is an interpretation of Scelsi's "Quattro Pezzi su una nota sola", its four pieces interrupted by narrative interstitials. Features ebow on slide steel, piano, and organic vocals. The script was adapted from https://www.allmusic.com/composition/mc0002378353.

spring dream… not becoming unhinged
is what’s unbearable

This week's Disquiet Junto prompt asked us to use the first line of a favorite book as the inspiration for a piece of music. I selected David Byrne's "How Music Works", with the opening sentence "I had an extremely slow-dawning insight about creation."

I'm traveling this week, so away from my outboard gear, but I did bring along a mini keyboard and headphones so that I could still participate this week! Features several layers of software synths (mainly Alchemy) and a field recording made from the 3rd floor balcony of the flat we're renting while we're here.

I tried to keep this sparse (for me at least), following the idea of the "slow-dawning insight", while still capturing the chaos of the creative act. It's probably still unsettling, but I just can't help that.

A Slow Dawning Insight About Creation (disquiet0705)

This is an excerpt from a larger work called "warsaw"
I wrote this while in Brussels, Belgium, making a piece for electronics, clarinet, and video for The Pride Museum.
[I will probably retitle this piece a bit lateer]

Disquiet Junto Project 0705: Book Start
The Assignment: Let the beginning of a book help you begin a new piece of music. 

The chosen text is a poem by Giuseppe Ungaretti (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giuseppe_Ungaretti),
written in July 1918 in the trenches during the First World War.

Si sta come 
d'autunno 
sugli alberi 
le foglie 

https://www.sololibri.net/Soldati-poesia-Ungaretti-si-sta-come-d-autunno-sugli-alberi.html


I obtained a sequence of 7 notes (AFDGBCE – 9 5 1 7 e 0 4), which I distributed across various sequencers and instruments. In particular, I used several old patches from SampleTank 2/3.
