I’ve been making a series of short, immediate response pieces over the last week or so. The pieces are all written/built, performed and recorded in the space of around 20-30 minutes.

They may become part of something bigger, they may not.

I recently produced an interactive audio work as part of Collection(s) Part II which will be installed at the closing exhibition. It takes place this Friday (18th March) at the Lower Foyer Gallery at Duncan of Jordanstone, Dundee, 6-8pm.
The piece was constructed using redundant museum artifacts as source material, coaxing forgotten resonances and rhythmns from them and constructing them into a series of composed loops. At the event, visitors will be able to interact via a midi controller to remix their own combinations of composed loops as a soundtrack to the exhibition which will consist of pieces created during the workshops alongside the museum objects.
A short rendering of the audio appears below, this was recorded on the fly with me interacting with the composed elements via the interface.

Another new piece which came about quite subconsciously. A little externalised meditation in response to too much noise.
