5Four is a structured Improvisation for drum kit and the AAIM
performance system. Given a minimal score, the drummer is asked to improvise within the framework of the piece. The computer performer determines the progression of the piece, and also improvises using the AAIM performance system and a collection of samples consisting of both live and prerecorded sounds from the drummers kit.

THE DEISE JIG

Tune inspired by an instructional life video about attitude problems from the 50s

Attitude

Tune Inspired by the commentary on recordings of various songbirds during their dawn chorus. I discovered them while editing audio for an installation piece called "dawn chorus" for my friend James Nesfield : http://james.nesfield.org/DawnChorus


These Songbirds

Another Tune Inspired by The perlinger archives, this one was primarily about bad posture, but the stuff that they brought up about playing up for the mirror was too good to miss. This track contains a vocal by Kate O Toole, percussion by Barry O Halloran, fiddle tracks by Hannah Ryan, and an electronic and percussion collaboration in my good buddy Liam Lynch
