SIS
A work for field recordings and sine tones. This version was recorded live at Sea and Space in Los Angeles, CA.
Sirens
A film score for Jana Papenbroock's film of the same name. Written for cello, processed field recordings, and sine tones.
Outliers
A work for any number of musicians in which pitches that are heard most often are slowly removed from the set of available pitches over the course of the piece until no more pitches are left.
This version was performed at The Pescadrome in Santa Barbara by ensemble 303 (sax - Casey Anderson, laptop - Scott Cazan, guitar - John Hastings, guitar - Mike Winter).
Tuesday (Live at Echo Curio)
A live recording from a show at the Echo Curio comprising field recordings and microphone feedback.
Database of Intention
The two texts for this piece were selected from the roughly 2 million search records of America Online users that were accidentally made available to the public last year. The searches span over a three month period and here I've scaled them down to 14 minutes, maintaining their relative durations. Some pics from the performance here.
slowBurn
A six-channel video and sound piece for out of phase high-speed footage of fire and sine tones tuned to the room.
Performed by Jordan Bartee, Scott Cazan, Michael Deragon, Elisabeth McMullin, Jae Park, and Matthew Setzer at Calarts.
Fractal Plane
The title of this piece relates to the self-similar nature of the pitch material, derived from a fractal algorithm, which is used by all members of the ensemble. Performed by the New Century Players (Flute: Rachel Rudich, Viola: Mark Menzies, Cello: Erika Duke-Kirkpatrick, Piano: Dzovig Markarian, Conductor: David Rosenboom).
2x10-8kg
For violin and live electronics. Performed by me on laptop and Andrew Tholl on violin.
