Gegenstrom—Wasser

To be played very quiet OR very loud.

a piece about errors, unstable and unpredictable behaviours. The sound is generated by buffers being read at way to fast pace, creating errors due to floating point number approximation and new born sounds.
I have been particularly seduced by the almost total loss of control over the deployment of the piece, as well as the fact that the process could happen by itself until the computer dies, producing more and more quirky sounds.
As always, no treatment has been used to let the digital process appear and happen as it is.

Durch

This is a stereo version of the piece. The original pd patch has been written to be performed on a 4.4 Sound system.
The patch could be extended to a 8.4 system (open for more :)), which would be optimal.

Anatomy Of An Explosion

friction-resonance is an attempt to experiment with concrete sound objects and their ephemeral nature to create continuity. This was an exercise given during the first Semester at IEM.

Except for the (very) short noise wall, it uses exclusively samples from a bowed candle holder. No treatment has been added to the sound except for a variation in playback speed.
