Abyss (2002) for two track tape [4:36]
Premiered 7 April 2002 at CalArts, Music Exploration Series
Abyss (2002) audio excerpt 1.1MB

Abyss (2002) consists of multiple layers of sound attempting to avoid detructions. Swirling about, they struggle to make to the surface before disinigrating and eventually being swallowed in a descending mass. The originally source material was created using PulsarGenerator, and modified using a program I wrote in SuperCollider

Pulse (2000) for eight track tape [8:30]
Premiered 16 November 2000 at CreatEmotion
University of California, Santa Barbara

Pulse (2000) is the third piece in which I continue my fascination with steady rhythms as sound textures. I began with some basic gestures, and allow the more interesting of those gestures to fall into rhythmic patterns as the piece unfolds. The rhythms are juxtaposed to highly contrasting moments, both in terms of silence and static sounds. The rhythmic sounds were conceived using convolution, granular synthesis, or a combination of both. A phase vocoder was used sporadically to manipulate some of the source material. The static sounds were generated by graphical synthesis. The source material was sampled voice and manipulated noise. The piece was realized at Studio Var?se at CREATE.
