Sounds how it feels ? Smooth with a subtle roughness.

nice sounds... love the rain/water combos too

Very nice counter to the previous passage. Enjoyed this piece very much

Simulated birdsong. Woozy loopy clarinets. VHS tape disintegration.

This is a site specific performance of my Found Objects and Atmospheres (acoustic translation version) on July 15th at King's College Strand Campus, Somerset House, East Wing, Inigo Rooms,  the space of the Performative and Experiential Translation exhibition. As sound material for my performance I solely used field recordings I made at the campus and its surroundings and some sounds I produced live during the performance. I transformed or "translated" the field recordings into electronic sounds using a framework I set up with tools developed by GRM.

Puddle in the Pegwell Bay mudflats, teeming with life

Puddles

Growing up on near the coast, i have long been captivated by bits of sea glass - they hold some weird, ambiguous, place in my heart - and seem a productive phenomena to think about time with; once useful things carelessly abandoned to the elements, once sharp things rendered smooth, once entirely fabricated things approximating the natural once again. And the colours! Frosty whites, evocative blues and turquoises, greens both pale and deep, browns suggesting booze, coincidentally suggesting seaweed... would that all our waste could be rendered so innocuous and casually beautiful...

so, yeah, i chose to work with three pieces of sea glass; not technically stones i guess? but, the way i figure it, the sand that made the glass was once rock, and these pieces, sea and sand-worn are, if not rocks, then, uh, rock adjacent? & they have all been collected from the coast of North East England...

i had intended to make something smoother, more gauze-y - i guess i may yet, as these are pleasing samples to my ears - but i ended up rather liking the the scrape and chip of the ~eight minutes i recorded fiddling about with the three most appealing pieces near the top of the jar i keep these things in on my windowsill.  There's a varying amount of granular delay at play here - a quintessential smoothing/eroding effect to my mind - but that aside there's no real effects added bar some eq-ing and compression; most everything else is cut & splice; where it gets weird - that strange digi-brittle & rumble - is just me playing games with playback speed in the main - micro universes extruded from dragging things out and out again. I felt justified in using rain recorded yesterday morning, 'cause [a] i reallly like rain & [b] it's a way of including the water than formed these odd pieces of glass in the first place... heading to the beach didn't appeal yesterday - it was raining - & anyway, waves and sea seemed a little too on the nose, i figured...
