echo from afar (ii)(2022), for six musicians and electronics

Generative music in Pure Data vanilla by Imri Talgam In memory of Paul N.
The recording is a single take of the software with no editing.

Sonic Garden was inspired by early electronic music pioneers such as Koenig, Stockhausen, and Knut Wiggen. It uses mostly additive synthesis and ring modulation. This recording is a version for stereo, but the piece is also available in versions for multichannel systems.

The piece progresses randomly through different states, each of which sets specific values for the random generators; some generate less common events (noise/glissando);
some are breaks. The probability of a state depends on the number of selectors (integers) that trigger it. Alternatively, the patch can be played using a midi controller (see midicc subpatch). The piece ends automatically after 5 minutes with a flourish and probability fade-out.

“Ice Flow” revolves around the ideas of large forces of subterranean movement, not always easy to discern from the surface; of monolithic masses which are somehow alive. It is also a piece which contains an omnipresent tactility – as part of an ongoing search for a way to incorporate the body of the performer as an integral part of the sound experience. Voice and breath are an inseparable part of the sound in its perceived wholeness – both in its excitation and physical characteristics and in its emotional connotations.
