A sound haiku for this week's Disquiet Junto based around binaural field recordings taken in Suquamish and Bainbridge Island, Washington - Cascadia.
The "Sound Haiku" and the instructions for making them were shared as part of the Sound Environments (Sound II) class that I am currently Teaching at Virginia Commonwealth University, Department of Kinetic Imaging.

210327 Puget Sound Haiku - disquiet0482

(... to bury a dead bird). as this loop was playing i found a dead bird outside my studio. i didn't have shoes on, but i didn't want it to just lie there so i walked through the snow and buried it among some green growth under some rocks.

the synth here is an arp2600 (korg FS) ... one of my favorite features of the synth is the built in speakers. it allows me to turn it on and play.. without having to worry about bringing up a console channel or doing any routing/patching. also, because of the semi-modular-ity (?) i can patch pedal FX into the signal path.

there are a couple of lovely pedals here.. aging the sound, like the dead bird.

A late-stage rehearsal straight to cassette for reference. Recorded shortly before going into the studio, probably at John Henry rehearsal rooms. This is Mark on guitar, Lee on drums, and myself on piano and organ (the bass was always addressed in the studio once the basic track was down, which is why it doesn't feature here).
It's best to take the 8 minutes out and listen to the end, preferably in headphones, and in a quiet space,

Some new sadboi ambient I have been writing under new moniker Himitsu no Hasu and a partial Inoyama Land cover which gets cut off. Sorry! Zoom died. Also lots of funny background conversations happening.

Love to the Chewing Foil crew--it's always a pleasure.

Thank you to my dear friend Francesco Canas for the partial recording.

Disquiet Junto Project 0426: Cellular Chorale
The Assignment: Make music with the source audio from (and inspired by) a Patricia Wolf project.

Step 1: This is a collaboration with Patricia Wolf, based on her Cellular Chorus. Check it out at:

http://cellularchorus.com 13

Step 2: Download the 64 source tracks of the Cellular Chorus at:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/v0w2kl69ys9bzvx/AAC4Ydqg7KeGCuICxO6gIipEa?dl=0 8

Step 3: Create a new piece of music using only the source audio. Use as many of the samples as you’d like, but don’t add other sounds, or process the samples to any extent more than slightly altering the individual material.

Background. Patricia Wolf has said of her original piece: “Cellular Chorus is a work of spatialized aleatoric music using smartphones to bring people physically closer to have an interactive and collective experience with light and sound. The piece is played by each user visiting Cellular Chorus on their smartphones. … The sounds I made are meant to harmonize. There is no right or wrong way to play them. The intention of this piece is to repurpose your smartphone for deep listening, creative experimentation, and to immerse groups of people in a sound and light environment with face to face interactions.”

Cellular Chorus (Woods Of Home Edit)[disquiet0426]

I was entranced by Patricia Wolf's Cellular Chorus piece, so here I am using my granular looper to grab samples of the loops live from her website.

These are first takes, no edits except for fade ins and out, so they are rough.

Four Short Remixes of Cellular Chorus [disquiet0426]

a quick max patch was created to generate chaotic yet natural alterations of playback speed for the chosen elements from Patricia Wolfe's Cellular Chorus. a bit of filtering and reverb were used to allow the elements to sit together as a whole. The bass element heard is one of the voice elements stretched and pitched down further.
