brill! reminded me of Forbidden Planet! :)

Labyrinthe I

The 292ST is a modified version of the Buchla 292C circuit.
This version has a control on the resonance when it is in filter mode.
This extract is a beta test made by Phillipe Petit (thank you !) and gathers different use of the lopass mode and it's resonance.


Le 292ST est une version modifié du circuit du module 292C de Buchla.
Cette version a un contrôle sur la résonance lorsqu'il est en mode filter (low pass). Cet extrait est un beta test réalisé par Phillipe Petit (merci ! )et rassemble différente utilisation du mode Lopass et sa résonance.

292ST

Sotto La Tettoia, live à SUMO, Lyon 11/03/23

Duo improvisation recorded in Norwalk, CT, USA, Dec 29, 2022.
Kristin Norderval: voice & gesture-controlled laptop,
Miguel Frasconi: glass & analog electronics

Norwalk – 2 / Norderval & Frasconi

First track with the Serge panels. I used the Serge to generate the sonic material that I fed into different effects whose parameters were meticulously automated in the DAW. Also the first time I've done overdubbing and combining multiple takes.

Spooky Action At A Distance

A solo performance built from interactions between a custom-designed analog circuit and a laptop running software sound generators. The performer plays the circuit by manipulating two pressure sensors and shorting discs as well as standard knobs and switches. The laptop responds using combinations of 4 distinct voices: filtered sub-audio pulse waves, resonant noise bands, Frequency Modulation, and Amplitude Modulation. A binding together of the analog and digital realms is the result, the unique characteristics of each medium crossbred and counterpoised in time to form a hybrid sensibility.

Analog circuit sounds analyzed and complemented by laptop synthesis.

Visibility Study

Frappes

In 2019 a probe took to the Moon about a thousand tardigrades, the only known animal resistant to space vacuum and lack of oxygen.
Where most small invertebrates move in all directions, tardigrades move calmly scaling tiny debris in a nonchalant and clumsy gait… Feeling inspired to soundtrack that breaking news and convey such atmosphere, I chose to use sounds emitting from only one source the mighty Benjolin module adaptated for Buchla by Anthony Capelli based on Rob Hordijk’s clever design… 
Modular moonwalk?!

Tardigrades On The Moon

I like to be introduced as a "MUSICAL TRAVEL-AGENT".
ONSTAGE I'm mostly playing an Easel K (Buchla Modular Synth) and The Pipe (from SOMA Lab) which allows mouth-synthesis... I also manipulate unique vinyls with my sounds/musics, assaulting turntables to take advantage of the vinyl material to fondle released sounds, raking the needle across the record's grooves, rubbing their stylus on paper, cardboard, metal to process unusual noises and textures. I have a physical relation to my recordings and envision my live sets like performances. 
Gesture is also a very important part of my compositional process... While composing I am also relying on the use of real instruments such as Cymbalom, Pianos, Guitar and Percs that I play like a kid discovering a new toy, improvising and attaching great importance to gesture and stressing dynamics. My moves aren’t consensual, not cozying up potential listeners. A Punky approach even if throughout the past years I have been following courses of Composition + Electroacoustic Music at the Conservatory, specializing in Modular Synthesis. 
Pushing further my research in bringing together the Human and its Machine into a tapestry of sound which creates a deep sound assemblage of exotic Musiques Concrètes which guarantees to grow on you with repeated listens, slowly revealing its detailed richness…
