Go-Ban for tape, for the Tze Chun Dance Company, at WAXworks and at the 2007 DancenOw Festival at DTW.
A piece for 10 dancers inspired by the ancient game of Go, to which I weaved the sounds of tapping stones, gongs, orchestral samples, and more.
Hamletized for tape, for dance by choreographer Karole Armitage at the Washingon Ballet's 7x7 series.
Richard Burton performing Hamlet turns into a sputtering storm, made solely out of his vocal samples.
Transfaction for String Quartet and live electronics, performed by the Allsar Quartet
Instead of using electronics to abstract a sound into the unrecognizable, Transfaction uses live audio processing to reinforce and expand the instrumentalists by only applying a range of transpositions to the sound of each instrument. This reproduces each instrument's sound as a variety of different possible chords, spectra, clusters, and so on, which can vary for each played pitch. Through this method, the instrumental part becomes the foundation for an extra dimension of compositional choices, which were largely informed by my personal tastes and modes of computer music creation.
Live Stock for live-processed flute and piano, Lindsay Brillson, flute, Gabby Leong, piano
Live Stock is an electroacoustic work that utilizes a series of cues to create different signal processing chains in real time. In the piece, pure acoustic sections are interspersed with sections of live processing, creating a dialog between the structured, rhythmic, acoustic portions and the more chaotic and free-flowing electroacoustic sections.
The sole source sound is that of the 2004 Livestock Marketing Association Champion Auctioneer. Digital processing of both the source sound and the flute creates a dialogue between the two: an interplay in which each controls some facet of the other.
Advanced Reservations part I part II Eric Huebner, piano
The first movement of Advanced Reservations generates the electronic portion by sampling and processing the piano in real time. The second, shorter movement generates its sound by analyzing the piano spectrum and triggering samples.
Taxonomy 5:10, stereo Premiered at Festival Synthese, Bourges, France
Taxonomy was originally written for IMEB's centennial of Jules Verne's death, and attempts to portray Verne's romantic view of future technology. Using a combination of synthesis and processed samples, I attempt to evoke the clunky and unwieldy nature of Verne's machines.
