about

A series of collisions between musicians and my orchestra of speakers (aka "acousmonium"). All material is improvised, the player is amplified and subjected to processing through a computer, which is then used to diffuse the sound to the various speakers live.

The acousmonium is made up of two tape recorders, two radios, one powered speaker, one timpani, three recycled speakers, three transducers, one piano, one gong, one snare drum, a mason jar, a midi keyboard, and a computer.
