Unmitigated Audacity MIX  by FXSP 2015

Project description
 E-100 is a sound composition by François Xavier Saint-Pierre and James Andean in which key samples of cinema sounds are culled from the films in the Toronto International Film Festival's  Essential 100 films list. Vernacular film sounds are heard both clearly and obliquely in conjunction with a randomizing Max MSP algorithm. The samples interact in random variations over the duration of a cycle, interweaving dialogue, environmental sounds and instrumental accompaniment. This sonic tapestry of film references allows audiences to experience cinema's most significant moments outside the visual realm.
