Duration: 5 min 19 s
Description: Collaboration between conFract and cestode from many years ago

My collaborative contribution to the UCSB "So Not Solo" exhibition from Dec. 06 to 10, 2014. The discussion of dreams becomes fleeting.The Process:

1. collect as many audio snippets of people describing their dreams.
2. Disperse, cut-up, glitch the audio files.
3. Add a healthy dose of reverb.
4. Make at least a 30 min. loop

The Goal:

To create a sonic space (location) where patrons willingly attempt to interpret and filter the "narrative wash" (components of the environment).

Weird version:

Dreams begin as (electrical) impulses with the Brain.
Dreams are conceived as virtual locations and (physical) experiences.
The recital, reception and manipulation of audio material exist as (electronic) data.
The transmission and transformation of sound data (electrical) to a speaker system (physical- vibrations in air to the body).

Conclusion- Transforming a collective (non-location, virtual) into a shared experience (localized, physical).

cakeworm - Demontia

conFract began in 1999 in Manchester, New Hampshire, USA, when a bored young man bought a Roland MC-303.  Originally NRG az M, and then Aethyrphlux, he produced two albums, Crisis Fetish and WOMB(and selected mutations).  Over the course of time, he acquired more machines to work with, and eventually began incorporating computers into his toolbox.  Most of the music is the realization of fleeting concepts and ideas that often remain as sketches, but that is how his mind works.  Have an idea, get it sequenced, and move on to the next, but maybe return to the older ideas at some point.  2020 MIGHT bring another album.  Maybe.  It's been 17 years since the last one.  What's a few more years?
