A recurring process with shifting sound sources and modest production.

And sometimes recordings of songs/improvisations by Anna.

Imaginary Instruments is the duo work of composer/sound artist Mitch Renaud and historical keyboard specialist Katelyn Clark. Formed in 2019 in Victoria BC, the two musicians share a fascination with the materiality of sound and of tuning relations between instruments. In their work, feedback systems of a modular synth combine with early instruments (portatif organ/harpsichord) to draw out unexpected and envisioned sound. They co-compose long duration pieces for live and recorded settings, drawing from historical tuning systems, deep listening practices, and the sonic imaginary.

"Ben Grossman is a busy musician: improviser, studio musician, composer, noisemaker and audio provocateur.  He works in many fields, having played on over 100 CDs, soundtracks for film and television, sound design for theatre, installations, work designed for radio transmission, and live performances spanning early medieval music to experimental electronica.  Ben's tools of choice are electronics, percussion, and, especially, the  hurdy gurdy (Drehleier/vielle à roue), a contemporary electro-acoustic string instrument with roots in the European middle ages.  He studied the instrument in Europe and has also studied Turkish music in Istanbul.  With an abiding interest in pushing the limits of his instruments and pushing the boundaries of whatever venue or medium in which he works, Ben's solo CD, Macrophone was released in 2007 and features a unique two disc form for simultaneous, aleatoric playback.

Recent projects and collaborations explore the sonification of lived experiences through their accompanying objects and interpersonal relationships. A curiosity towards listening environments, physical space, and psychoacoustics drive the work as it seeks to promote a heightened state of consciousness even in the most understated spaces and moments.
