To those who find this, well done. How did you guys get here with the rest of us?

A screaming comes across the club... 

Sweat is a collection of 2017-2021 live tracks. They are structured akin to the live shows I've been doing over these years, missing, of course, some works in progress and forthcoming material usually involved. 

This was the time. And this is the record of the time. 

Every show would get a new version, and these are my favorites. Evidently, most are vastly superior to the sickly versions previously available. These are precious for the experience and knowledge that went into them, they have been whittled down from bricks of compressed noise. 

Shit, basically I felt fucking stupid for having some bangers sit around on my laptop forever cause I'm not playing any of these live again (what shows? what clubs? me and whose army lol?); people keep asking me for these; most people will never see me live, so. And I figured this is a time to start a Bandcamp, seeing how Bio Future Laboratory is still selling my shit but won't pay me. 
I am still real, I exist. 

Thank you to everyone for inviting me to play, and thank you to everyone for coming to hear me play. I remember this; it happened. 

You may view this as a live album, and you may pick your favorites from the repeated tracks, which would give you a vague approximation of a show, minus the sweat.

Sam Wolk "Trop-plein" excerpt from new cdr on Salon available at http://saloncdr.blogspot.com/

New stereo improvisations by Sam Wolk. Max/MSP, Acoustic objects and feedback, SP-404, Saxophone (Max Lesser), Voice (Charmaine Lee)

The trio of improvisations which follow are variations on a single idea.  Running a Max/MSP patch and interacting with it is a method of transducing energy from one form to another.  Electrical energy drawn from the grid is ultimately transformed into acoustic energy emerging from speakers along with the accompanying, over-flowing waste energy [entropic release].  The ephemeral, unstructured heat released in the process of generating structured acoustic energy [the composition] takes multiple forms: the discarded acoustic energy of computer keys pressed while manipulating the patch, the kinetic energy of hard drives whirring as data is read from disk into the patch, the thermal energy of CPUs radiating out and the acoustic energy of fans loudly attempting to reroute those heat flows.  In this trio of variations the central theme is feedback.  These ephemeral energy fluxes associated with keys, fans, disks, and CPUs are subjected to recycling [feedback] as the energy they produce is transduced by a contact microphone and the computer's internal microphone back into electrical audio flows which serve as the input to the Max patch itself.  As such, manipulating the audio at the human-computer interface generates the very energy flows which are transduced into the audio to be manipulated in the first place... The computer processes its own unstructured flows of waste energy back into structured audio [the output of the patch].  The machine is not treated as an abstract, universal computational device whose digital nature renders its physical existence irrelevant.  Instead, as it harvests its own unstructured heat and processes it into structured audio, its physical identity is embraced for what it is: a concrete, individual, material machine imbricated in a larger system of energy flows. 

Recorded at the Harvard University Studio for Electro-acoustic Composition, 2016. 

Special thanks to Jeff Witscher. 

Play loud.
