"series" is the 4th solo full length cd by minimal sound artist/composer Richard Chartier. Created over an 8 month period "series" is Chartier's most minimal and subtle work to date. employing soft hushed almost imperceptible high frequencies and bursts and staticy quiet low shifting tones... the works explore an implied silence that is not silent... a quietness that belies the activity and energy of the sounds... cyclical, meticulously subtle structured, vaguely atmospheric digital compositions... meant to be experienced at quiet volumes or on headphones.

 Richard Chartier is a sound/visual artist residing outside of
Washington DC. He has recorded
 solo cds for Meme, Fällt, Microwave, Intransitive and pieces on
numerous international compilations, as well as collaborative works
with Nosei Sakata (*0) and Taylor Deupree on 12k. He has exhibited
his visual and sound works at galleries in the United States in
Washington DC, Massachusetts, Maryland, Virginia, and California. He
recently performed at the Mutek Festival in Montreal, Canada.
Currently working on a folio of his visual works with Fällt in
Ireland and a new solo work both for release in 2001.

other upcoming projects: working with past collaborator *0 for the
second "0/r" release
and a proposed project based on the work of Erik Satie with
visual/sound artist Steve Roden.

"each sound is presented as a sculptural object, each a work of art
in itself that suggests a quality of individuality...... the sound
speaks only of itself and the act of listening. " - [ Head Magazine,
UK ]

miki yui (tokyo, cologne), steve roden (usa)
