Sound Spectrum Festival

Hello all

Tomorrow night I will be performing at Spectrum for the Sound Spectrum Festival. I am playing two sets, the first is a streaming performance collaborating with Griffith University in Brisbane, our node is called the Aletheia ensemble. Streaming in a loop is full of feedback and amazing sounds.

I will also be playing solo, in quadraphonic. Probably some no input mixer, theni will be playing guitar, and maybe vocals, processed by my computer. I haven't quite decided what I will do yet, but I am sure something will come to me.

Anyway just a brief update, I have applied for a residency at Radialsystem V in berlin for september. Let us all hope I get it.

I have patched max/msp all weekend long and my brain is fried.

Good night

Openess / No one.

Hello blog world,

It has been a while since I have spoken to you. I guess I've been busy, but mostly felt I didn't have enough to show for my work, or anything solid to upload.

University work has been great, but I want to put all these great ideas, compositional constructions and programming to use. I am on the brink of doing some things which I hope will be really great. I need to break out from these constraints.

I am going to try and record at least 40 minutes of works over the holidays and see about playing more shows and releasing something. It will be dreamy and devastating I hope.

Also I found out that my name spoken in German (keinen) means "No one". What a relief.

Shortly to come - scores, recordings, max patches for generating visuals, Finished works.

Thank you, Meupe

Hello!

Big thanks to everyone who came down last Tuesday to see me play, and Meupe for graciously allowing me to play and being ultra nice. Spectrum is a great venue.

Here is a treat for your earbuds, somewhat like what I played the other night.
Composition for guitar / laptop, this is a recording of a live performance. You may be able to hear all the on train max patching.

We Cross the Bridges that lead to the Sea

Ok so it's a low quality MP3 and I am so poor with html that I can't get the flash player to work here. Yikes.

Love

Listen

Intently

Dance No.1

This is a piece that I composed for a 3rd year dance piece by a nice lady named Molly. The work reflects sentimentality and longing, I am very happy with how the piece turned out.

Gold!

Soundtrack to a short silent film for Revel8.

Stretched Limb from Light

Scored work for clarinet and laptop composed last year. Clarinet notes are held for extended periods of time forming complex, intricate layers.

Love

Berlin Stretch

Audio soon.
I have been lazy but soon I will be creative.

Salon Bruit

Last month I played at a new music / electronic event called Salon Bruit (roughly translated to noise lounge). The other group that played were UK based Left Lung Right Lung, who were excellent. The gig was amazing and I would like to thank Phil and the guys for giving me the chance to play. Small computer errors will not get in my way.








The gig was recorded and I will post some snippets up soon!
