A stereo version of a recent 3rd order ambisonic piece

An 8-channel version will be played on the opening concert of Spectrum NY’s Multichannel Music Festival, which runs from November 2nd to 10th – http://www.spectrumnyc.com/site/calendar.php –

Thanks to Megan Jurek for writing the phase flipping VST that runs in Reaper … saves a lot of time!

Retro-Disco consists of Samuel Stoll on Horn, Moritz Müllenbach on Cello, and Simone Keller on Synthesizer… and they are fantastic!

Playing a piece I wrote for the ensemble and live electronics at the also fantastic Smock Alley Theatre in Dublin, during 2019’s Music Currents Festival

Some quick documentation… the abridged version… of Short Story an interactive installation, that requires headphones. A cigar box is place under a reading-room type lamp. When the box is opened we see a strange book-like interior. Plastic pages can be turned that contain different chapters relating to the life and thoughts of Arturo Feunte. Much more can be heard about Arturo’s life and thoughts during longer visits/prolonged reading sessions.

Thanks to Séverine Ballon for this intense performance at CCRMA last week – and for asking me to write the piece in the first place! A new one for cello, live electronics, and light/video. Use headphones, set to full screen, and pull up a comfy chair – it’s almost 17 mins long – for the cheerfully titled “Not Even The Dead Go Free”. I will have a proper binaural mix early in the new year.

Also, people are still walking into the room after intermission as the piece starts… hence some of the noise at the beginning of the video, it’s not just people running away…

Lots more music and sound objects to follow in early 2018

I showed an early version of this installation at CCRMA Open House (Stanford University) in April 2016. This is an updated version shown during Ensemble Pamplemousse’s recent 2017 Chance and Circumstance Festival in New York. The installation uses MAX, Arduino, Photoresistor… and cookies

With thanks to Bryan Day’s San Francisco/Bay Area based Eh? Records Aural Repository  comes my relatively recently released album of solo recordings. These performances use various degrees of SuperCollider controlled bandpass filtered feedback, violin bows and strings, a good old SM 57, and some electric guitar. They can all be checked out in the following ways –
