about

Liquid Fragments, is the first piece of a new series of mixed works that explores the weave of traditional instruments (live part) and their exfoliation (tape part). The live parts, double bass and alto flute, were composed and recorded first, then fragments of these recordings were processed in real-time producing a wide range of material for the tape section. The sounds are ‘poured’ in to fragments through different DSP processes coincident to their mixing with the other (recorded traditional instruments) tracks of sound. These mixed processes crystallize their fluid, fundamental origins in a transformation whereby ‘original,’ ‘mold’ and ‘copy’ conflate, and become one.
