Re: [microsound] Feedback requested




You'd need more than 6 seconds to really get into it. :-) If you really want to know what the "point" of my MFA project is, I can post my write-up, but basically it's about the contexts of digital technology. With this piece, I was thinking of the degradation of the audio signal (glitches, distortion, etc.) as a metaphor for the loss of historical memory.


Thanks for listening.

Phil


Being on dial up I got about 6 seconds of this
but I like it. What are the points behind this as
your master project?

Luc Ferrari's field recording
pieces where he erased everything down to the
repetitive actions of everyday has always interested
me, but I've never heard it. Is there a Japanese re-issue
of those albums?

Peace,
A

Hey all,

Just put up a current draft of a piece that will be part of my MFA graduating project. I'd like to get your feedback.

It's based on some recordings by Derek Holzer (karosta.edworks.net) which were made in Latvia. The sources are an Orthodox Mass in Karosta and some ice from the Baltic Sea.
