Like the unity of old and new movement in your track.

leaned into the noise of the original recording. loaded sample into disting, first obligatory step to slow down the sample by one oct, and used marbles to skip around the sample, with a shorter sequence to begin with. output routed through low pass filter, with its cutoff being sequenced.

180324 : Deux heures on affronte les choses du ciel, lequel termine de se tordre, près de rompre. On persévère avec un rythme irrégulier. Il conserve de la résistance, qu’on déclenche par salves et qu’il réserve on ne sait trop comment. On chiale à demi. On apprend comment pousser vers l’avant mais on s’inquiète plus tard du manque à obéir qu’engage cette course sans bornes..

190524 : L’âpreté du dehors inscrit notre peine et cette peine, découverte, nous grise.

13 Gnoses (Vol.7)

Nag Isengrin

Recorded & mixed on 07 Nov 2009 & 30 Aug 2024 by Jim Lemanowicz at Blissville Electro-Magnetic Laboratories of Massapequa. 

Process notes -
I started with a Nov 2009 “home field recording” I made using a small 1960s transistor radio to detect/probe electromagnetic fields around my apartment, which itself was inspired by Nicolas Collins’ book *Handmade Electronic Music.* 

I recorded this using a Sony Cybershot DSC-W50. I recorded things like computer hard drives, a Blackberry phone, a TV, an electric toothbrush, a microwave, a refrigerator and light fixtures using this technique. Not sure what made it onto this piece. 

I selected small pieces of this 9.5 minute recording and dragged them into a total of 11 tracks in Ableton Live. Some tracks use MIDI instruments and others play the tracks in real time or altered with Live’s warping modes.

Tools used -
Ableton Live, IRCAM IM-Mover, Slate + Ash Cycles, Ableton Granulator III & other native Live devices

The full audio/video for this “radio probe” source can be heard/seen on my YouTube here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GK4vmRqBd68. 

I put together a small body of raw material inspired by the book back in 2009, some of it is still on YouTube. The YouTube videos use Magix Music Maker for video editing, IIRC. 

Artwork/Photography - Long Island, NY, USA, North Fork - 19 Oct 2008 - using the same Sony camera mentioned above.
