Performance of a gesture controlled Optical Synthesis instrument I designed for my masters thesis in Music and Media Technologies, TCD. The user controls visual content on a screen, which is scanned by the software program and output concurrently as audio. Accompanied by two trombones.

OpticWave Performance

Electro-Acoustic composition made from a contact mic on a tap, the run-out groove of a record and a pen on a spring reverb unit.

Arbor

Process piece. Click of synthesiser turning on feeds back upon itself to form a noise bed, filter with slow LFO is gradually lifted to introduce drone.

Swell

Yet More Timewasting Ambient Nonsense

Initial noodle with my Teenage Engineering OP-1. Goes nowhere fast.

First

Some of the fruitier things I make. More from me at https://soundcloud.com/the-third-policeman.
