Title: "Symmetries" premiere at LAC 2005
Post by Forum Admin on Mar 27^th, 2005, 5:18pm

My latest work "Symmetries" that was commissioned by the emerging Polish violinist Ania Zielinska will receive its premiere at the third Linux Audio Conference (http://lac.zkm.de/2005/program.shtml) in Karlsruhe, Germany. The concert will take place on April 23rd 2005 at 8pm.

About "Symmetries":

Symmetries (for computer and optional violin) is an experiment in relegating musical structure and expression to the inherently stupid box of transistors. By concurrently utilizing various GNU/Linux audio software (Fluidsynth/QSynth, Pd, LADSPA, Jack-rack, JACK) it was composer’s intention to generate a lush interactive texture whose frail balance engenders a consistent forward drive. In an ever-changing array of hierarchical probabilities no two instances are expected to ever be the same. The piece has been designed to be completely modular in terms of computer-driven sound diffusion and can utilize 2-8 channels.

For its premiere the piece will utilize 8-channel diffusion.
