Duration: 2 min
Description: I tested new materials. It's high quality spring steel so now Pocket Gongs sounds even longer. Recording was made with Zoom h5. So the sound which you would hear would be different but really not worse. Three recordings of three different sound models.

The track is meant to awaken those still sleeping on global warming and other ecological catastrophes. The first part resembles times before humans interfered with Nature. The second part takes the listener to the era of the Anthropocene. Most of the layers of the song are made out of my voice - its samples and waveform.

Anthropocene

A brief reinterpretation of William Basinski's "dlp 1.1" using electric bass & cassette tape loops.

The last my project result. Instalacion wich one week was fixating main dors of gallery opening and from that informacion the sound and the image was generated. In the image every person which have passed the doors have generated one square, and it was added to all ather(the color of square depends from the time when the last person have past). The sound was generated in every hour recounting the number of person which have past the dors and from this number the note was generated which added to all ather notes. In this way when the system gets more informacion it gets more precise and more complex. More presicle to express time chaos and coincidence which has their own harmonies and dissonances.

Paskutinio mano projekto rezultatas. Instaliacija savaite fiksavo durų uždarymą ir atidarymą, iš šios informacijos buvo generuojamas vaizdas bei garsas. Vaizde kiekvienas praėjęs žmogus palikdavo kvadratą, kuris prisidėdavo prie visų prie štai buvusių(jo spalva priklauso nuo intervalo kuomet buvo praėjęs paskutinis žmogus). Garsas buvo generuojamas kas valanda perskaičiuojant kiek žmonių praėjo ir iš šios informacijos sugeneruojama viena nata kuri prisideda prie viso prieš tai buvusio garso kūrinio. Tokiu metodu sistemai įgaunant daugiau informacijos rezultatas tampa sudėtingesnis ir tikslesnis. Tikslesnis laiko chaosui ir atsitiktinumams, kurie atsiskleidžia kaip savotiškos harmonijos ir disonansai.

Generative sounds of doors by passing people.

Our resident synth wizard James Holden’s collaborative streak continues apace as he teams up with celebrated Polish clarinet guru Waclaw Zimpel for a four track EP of deliciously krauty in-the-moment improvisations, recorded over four days in Holden’s London studio back in the summer of 2018. The richly textured 'Long Weekend EP' pits Holden’s handmade modular synth rig against Zimpel’s multifariously expressive alto clarinet, judiciously supplemented by organ, voice, assorted percussion and (on 'Tuesday' & 'Wednesday') the Balearic-tinged guitar playing of Zimpel’s long-time collaborator Jakub Ziolek, making for an immersive and transcendent lost weekend of deep listening.

Finding himself at a loose end in London one July weekend in between UK live shows, Zimpel put the downtime to good use and joined Holden in his Sacred Walls studio to undertake a series of musical experiments, with the goal of completing one track per day. Over the course of the weekend, built up in sequential tape-layered live overdubs, first the lush hypnotic undulating noodles of 'Saturday' would emerge from the ether, followed by the rushy enveloping expanses of the stridently emotional 'Sunday' (Holden’s own personal favourite from the EP) – a productive two days indeed.
