Duration: 5 min 55 s
Description: A 1-second D major arpeggio, looped and run through Chase Bliss Mood, Strymon Volante, Iridium, and Nightsky. Drone-y. It's a live performance, so enjoy the warbles when I grabbed the wrong knob. 😂

Inspired by cut-up technique as described by Tristan Tzara

RicksPlund, Nov. 18, 2014, Madsen Recital Hall.  This track meanders a bit, but DEAL WITH IT.  It's an improvisation for crying out loud.  

LIVE ACTIVATION OF AVAILABLE RESONANCES

When you wake up in the morning, but something's not quite right, then you wake up again and realize the first time was a dream.

Morning Edition Theme REMIX

My take on the Morning Edition theme, hope you like it!

Morning Edition Theme

This recording of the third movement of Septimus was created by the Nova string quartet at the University of North Texas in December 2009. The pitch content is based on the harmonic series of the lowest string of each instrument (C for cello and viola, and G for the violins).


Septimus, III. (string quartet)

This is a performance of Morton Feldman's Why Patterns? at the University of North Texas on Friday, November 13, 2012. The performers are Wayla Chambo, flute, Peter Soroka, glockenspiel, and Josh Harris, piano.

I'm a composer. I'm currently an associate professor of music and chair of the music program at Sweet Briar College in central Virginia. I have degrees from Appalachian State University, Brigham Young University, and the University of North Texas. 

My music is grounded in a fascination with visual art, textures, sound spectra, non-linear narratives, and extreme temporal manipulations, and it has been heavily influenced by studio techniques of electroacoustic composers. I've been commissioned by the Barlow Endowment for Music Composition, the Nova Ensemble at UNT, Akropolis Reed Quintet, Virginia Wesleyan University, and many amazing performers. I've composed two feature film scores—King Rat (2017) and HUM (2020), and my concert works have been performed throughout the United States as well as South Korea, and is available on the SEAMUS and Ravello record labels.
