Today's attempt at making something with a beat.

Industrial Bagpipe Army

Very rough mix of tape piece I composed way back in Prague. Narrative composition about entrapment in a piano.

Wasteland (ROUGH)

A little something I wrote today. Just for fun, I decided to try playing percussion, and I decided to use things I could find within reach. The percussion is, in order of appearance: hands on lap, hands on stainless steel water bottle, hands on wooden box, hands on cardboard tube, spoon on ceramic bowl, whisk on butcher knife,  hand claps.

Here's some bizarre polyrhythmic dance (?) music made by crudely layering some of my SC tweets.... in case you wondered what they sound like... https://twitter.com/sluyterrific_sc

Closest I've ever done to real dance music.. Using a vintage german microphone that doesn't really work for anything involving good sound quality to make or alter every sound involved.

Who Fixed The Drum Machine?

Trying to program some formant synthesis in SuperCollider, I found this strange phenomenon where the process resonated and sounded very much like throat singing. So what is there to do of course but make a silly piece from it.

What I imagine it might feel like to be a kernel of popcorn. Made with SuperCollider.

Popcorn

Part of my design / composition for The Subtle Body, written by Megan Campisi, directed by Michael Liebenluft, Feb 12 thru Mar 1 at 59E59 Theaters. It is a wonderful, funny, interesting play in English and Mandarin. You should come see it. More information and tickets: http://www.59e59.org/moreinfo.php?showid=195

The Subtle Body: First Interlude

What began as a venture into PM synthesis, wound up making an interesting soundtrack to a youtube video of hissing cockroaches giving birth.

Exploring the intricacies one sound (or person) has to offer.

If your speakers don't have much low end, the first couple minutes might be a bit boring. My apologies.

Things I learned today: I need to get better at playing piano while typing. My first foray into simultaneous improvisation on piano and live-coded SuperCollider. This is the third take because the first two went terribly :)

Improvisation - piano and noise
