Blakes 9 (2009) Blakes 9 (2008-9)
I’ve been working on this piece for over a year and it’s time to say it’s done.
The inspiration to start this piece came from two sources. One was that I watched the TV show Blakes 7 and thought it had great incidental music. And the other was that I briefly [...]Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Shorts: #29 Raining Up Shorts: #29 Raining Up (2009)
Commissioned and titled by Autumn Looijen
This piece was created using a MOTM Synthesizer and mixed in Ardour. There were several false starts. I had been doing field recordings of storms and for a while, every artificial sound I made seemed to also sound like weather. The title [...]Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Shorts #28: UntitledShorts: #28 Untitled (2008)Commissioned and (un)titled by Cecile MoochnekI wasn’t looking for a commission when I walked into the Cecile Moochnek Gallery on 4th Street in Berkeley. I was looking to do Christmas shopping. But I got talking to the gallery owner about art and music and she asked me to write [...]Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Blake’s 9 Blake’s 9 (2008)
I recently watched the entirety of the TV series Blake’s 7. Like all BBC science fiction productions of it’s era, the incidental music and sound effects are outstanding. The background hums, the computer whirrs and the ominous notes create a mood and a sense of place that is alien. After [...]Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Nice to See You Nice to See You by No More Twist (2008)
No More Twist is a new duo of Polly Moller and I. We played this improvised set live on KFJC on 17 July 2008. She was on flute(s) and noisemakers and I played a live sampling application (written in SuperCollider). We were featured [...]Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Joystick Intermezzo Joystick Intermezzo (2008)
All of my SuperCollider pieces require several silent seconds to clear existing memory, pre-compute data and load joystick drivers. I find it helpful in many circumstances to play short tape pieces as intermezzos while other, longer pieces, get ready to play. This particular one is designed to be used between [...]Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website PhreakingPhreaking (2008)
I wrote this piece for BrumCon 07. The con was sponsored by our local 2600 group, so I decided to use telephone in-line signaling codes as source materials. I spent a lot of time readin up on phone phreaking, which was just so completely cool. I never did it as a kid [...]Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Shot
Every other week, I have to give myself an injection of testosterone. I find it really hard to actually pierce my flesh with a needle. It’s like stabbing myself. At the same time, having testosterone in my body is crucial to my identity.

I used my cell phone to record Nicole clapping inside the cathedral in Breda, the Netherlands. There was an exceptionally long echo on her clap.
I used Audacity to snip out the impulse response from the recording and convolved it several times with the entire recording, using Sound Hack. My cell phone, unsurprisingly emphasizes high frequencies, [...]Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Shorts #27: Gil Thorp
Commissioned and titled by Josh Fruhlinger. (2007)
Josh gave me the title before I started the piece. Gil Thorp is the name of a surreal American newspaper comic which is supposed to be about high school sports. Josh runs a blog discussing newspaper comics, called the Comics Curmudgeon.

I picked up my sousaphone this afternoon, with the idea that I could improve my chops and work out some angst. As I lifted it, the spit valve fell off. As I played it, several other bits rattled loose. Alas. So I put the headphone part of [...]Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Are You a Feminist (Part 1) Are You a Feminist (Part 1) (2007)

I made this piece several weeks ago and I’m afraid that my methods have left my memory. It is made with an MOTM analog synthesizer.
