In this piece, I have found a new way of avoiding centralities. This piece is about going always to the periphery running away from the center. My obsession, against centralities, is reborn here with a new algorithm. To decolonize our reality we need to avoid the centralities created by dominant thinking.  Transmetric is the name of the algorithm. Transmetricism helps us to prevent the supposed normality created by centralities

Collaborametrum means measuring collaboration. Collaborametrum is an experimental work about forms of Artificial Creativity based on Collaborative Intelligence. It is a collaborative, interactive, and algorithmic work where the interpreters compose the work through their collaborative movements on stage. Collaborametrum is conceived as a cooperative musical game. The algorithmic system that creates the score is controlled by a Machine Learning system that measures the collaboration between musicians. The interpreters will be moving freely on stage. The movement will be captured with sensors and received by the computer via WIFI. The Machine Learning system will search for collaborative patterns, converting the collaboration into a metric. This metric will be used by a generative algorithm to create the score. The score will be sent to the performers via a real-time notation system. The musicians play their collaboration in real-time.

on June 7, in the New York Philharmonic Biennial 2016 at National Sawdust as part of the New York City Electroacoustic Music Festival (NYCEMF)

Material Soundscapes Collide is a trio improvisation between interactive audiovisual technologist-improvisor Joshua Mailman, composer-guitarist Arthur Kampela, and baritone saxophonist Rhonda Taylor. Kampela’s extended guitar playing involves entirely new playing techniques, combining in a compelling and seamless manner, traditional playing with noise oriented, percussive effects. Taylor explores parametric extremes: clear vs. distorted, low vs. high, etc. and varying states of activity and intelligibility, through traditional and extended techniques. Mailman performs using his FluxNOISations sensor-based full-body audio-visual interactive system, developed by him (with Sofia Paraskeva who also designed the system’s wireless sensor gloves). Using physical modeling algorithms, FluxNOISations generates three streams of digitally synthesized unpitched percussion-noise sounds: wood, metal, and noise (water, sandpaper, pebbles, sticks). These sonic streams are controlled through gradual motions of feet, elbows, shoulders, hands, wrists, and torso. Through these same body motions, the FluxNOISations performer also simultaneously manipulates generated visual imagery. The projected graphics present shifting harmonious symmetries of shape and color, like Oskar Fischinger’s and John Whitney’s “visual music.” Thus, through body motions, FluxNOISations coordinates its “visual music” with its “aural noise.” (See “Improvising Synesthesia” in Leonardo Electronic Almanac v.19/3, 2013.) The trio, duo, and solo sections of Material Soundscapes Collide present call-and-response interactions, as well as oppositions and trajectories of percussive-noise from classical guitar (Kampela), baritone sax (Taylor), and audiovisual streams of FluxNOISations (Mailman), in an unprecedented style of multisensory improvisation.

Note: No sound samples (pre-recorded elements) were used. All sound (and graphics) are generated in the moment of performance.

Feldman’s 75-minute work dedicated to his friend John Cage was written in 1982. In this new version, Aisha Orazbayeva (violin) and Mark Knoop (piano) set out to draw the listener into the charged space between the performers.

This track is a treatment of a poetry reading by Barry Dickens of his poem Saint Dymphna's Bells. HIs poem describes the day in which Ronald Ryan was hanged in Melbourne's Pentridge Jail, he was the last person to be executed in Australia
