Pólýkubb með rana (2013) for midi controlled church organ

Live from Klais organ MIDI concert at Hallgrímskirkja, august 23rd 2013.

Púls Einn

Orgelpark, Amsterdam, 2012, organ and live electronics. Performed by Matthias Havinga (organ), Gerben Gritter (bellows) and Wouter Snoei (electronics). Commissioned by Stichting het Orgelpark.
Organism was written for the Van Straten organ at the Orgelpark. This unique replica of a 15th century instrument is in mean tone tuning, and with hand-driven bellows. Organism explores the instrument, focusing on the air flow and how it brings life into the machine. The piece was later adapted for the "NCRV" organ at the Nicolaaskerk at Utrecht for the Gaudeamus Muziekweek. The piece will also be presented at the ISCM World Music Days at Wroclaw, 2014

Remember Me For 30 Days

An excerpt of gamut inc´s composition Planet Nine:

Planet Nine is a hypothetical planet in the far outer Solar System. Planet Nine does not have an official name, and it will not receive one unless its existence is confirmed. The predicted planet is most likely a mixture of rock and ice with a small envelope of gas.

Planet Nine is a spectral composition by gamut inc for five automated wind instruments and a hybrid organ of the Logos Foundation – the world´s largest robot-orchestra. The instruments are controlled by computer, but produce the sound acoustically. The woodwinds-ensemble consists of a tuba, a heliophon, a bassoon, an alto-sax and a bass-clarinet. They have filtering modes and pitchbends which allow a deep control of the timbral quality as well as microtonal tunings and glissandi-effects. <Hybr> —a hybrid organ— reflects the discourse of computer-driven music-machines, as it is a link between the acoustic and electronic soundproduction: its tubes are driven by little speakers inside each of the organ ́s tubes, making it a hybrid indeed. 

Planet Nine is written mainly in just intonation and has a fractal structure, where each subdivision of the overall form reflects the main divisions‘ characteristics. For this we use Supercollider´s recurssive semi-automated patterns, that we finally align to our preference. Thus the composition-method is an automat itself.
